flomo, why do you suggest buying cocktail sauce? Esp if youre going to buy horseraddish to tweak it... its pretty much the simplest condiment to make.

And personally I think seafood and cream sauces are generally gross. Im not saying it always applies, but I would suggest cooking something else besides alfredo. Its a heavy sauce, and if its not made very well it tastes gross after the first couple of bites. If you make it bad then its just disgusting. If you do decide to make it, please be extra careful not to scorch it, if you do it tastes like milky peanut butter. Trust me, I know.
