What food items do you have for guests?

I think it would be nice (and therefore quietly solicit 5 star reviews) if people have some kind of food in the house when they arrive? 

What do you all do?

What about other items like honey, mayo/mustard/ketchup...do you buy those individually wrapped and have available?

Other suggestions?

I don't want to sound jaded but I would not bother with this. It's just one more thing for you to have to keep up with, and the guests are not going to thank you for it. Just leave dry spices, coffee stuff, and cooking spray.

One thing I have learned is if you give guests too much, they don't thank you for it, they do the opposite. If you have ketchup, mustard, and mayo, they will complain that you don't have bbq sauce. The number one thing to remember in this business is to keep it simple. Make sure they have a nice, immaculately clean place to stay, and you're in good shape. Keep it simple. The more things you give yourself to deal with, the more you give yourself to trip up on.
