An apparatus and method for applying condiment, say salt to pretzels, wherein the pretzels or other articles are conveyed beneath a condiment dispenser for receiving condiment therefrom on the upper side of the article while condiment passes beneath the article to a collector, and the article is transferred to the collector onto collected condiment for application of the condiment to the under side of the article. The apparatus is selectively operable to apply condiment to only a single side of an article by feeding the article to the collector before deposit of condiment on the collector.
