There are no restrictions on those condiments due to fiber content. But, if you don't have much tolerance for hot/spicy foods, you may have to be careful for those reasons.
What's most helpful to remember is that, while you need to try and eat as much insoluble fiber foods as you can tolerate, in order to do that you have to do it carefully. There are no hard numbers here, you just want to be sure you always eat insoluble fiber foods with more soluble fiber foods. And cook/mash/blend/puree/chop insoluble fiber foods.
The condiments you're talking about would likely be served with a soluble fiber foundation - bread for a sandwich, rice, pasta, etc. Which should make them just fine for you, again assuming that you do okay with hot/spicy.
Best,
