Ketchup

[3rdEye]

I will only put ketchup on french fries, hash browns, fried potatoes, meatloaf, potato chips, and hamburgers. Most people I know are far more liberal in their usage of ketchup; they'll eat it on eggs, fish, even (god forbid) chicken nuggets. Many commit the ultimate sin of eating ketchup on a hotdog or corndog.

What sorts of weird things will you guys put ketchup on?

[tbach24]

Any potato product (even mashed potatos). Everything fried (except chicken). Any chicken I deem to dry. Eggs. I use excessive amounts, too.

[TimM]

Ever hear of Bagel Dogs? I used to put ketchup on those.

The ulimate sin is when it is applied to a good steak. The foods you mention are junk foods, which is where it belongs.

Putting ketchup on a good steak is a mortal sin, but is not the ultimate sin. But this is an inside thing with my friends and I anyway, so in general I would agree with you.

[Dubra]

anything with meat/eggs/potatoes/bread

i love ketchup

[3rdEye]

Edit: When I was a pothead, I would put ketchup and/or mayonnaise on Ritz crackers. Don't knock it 'til you try it.

Just use tomato soup. So much better. Kid from my school eats a ketchup sandwich everyday for lunch.

OK, now, I got crucified for saying that it is sacreligious to put ketchup on a hot dog. Everyone called my some sort of epicurian elitist or something, or just [censored] for short.

I have also been torn to pieces for my great love of the band TOOL, who I see you too are very fond of.

You should be prepared for a life of being scorned at 2+2, if you believe those who put ketchup on a hotdog should be shot (as I do), and also feel that TOOL far exceeds all other bands on the planet (which I do).

If not exactly SCORN, then certainly a bit of disdain.

Where did you grow up where you learned to feel this way? I have never heard of it being wrong to put ketchup on a hotdog. In fact, I would put it just behind burgers and fries as the thing Americans would most likely put ketchup on.

I put it in Chili.

I've never been one to shy away from espousing my strongly held beliefs, one of which is that eating ketchup on a hotdog is at least as bad as voluntarily sticking a hot curling iron in your ass. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Or for dipping the white part of the egg into it. Or for hash brown dipping. Or bagel and cream cheese dipping. Anything really. It's amazingly good.

Hmmm...I can see how that might be good, but I'd hate to ruin a perfectly good bowl of chili.

[Slacker13]

I order my eggs sunny side up, I then apply an even coat of ketchup on the top, cut around the yolk removing all the white and proceed to slurp it into my mouth. This process makes my wife sick, but damn it is good.

Minus the ketchup, that is nearly the ideal hotdog. Although I would probably add diced onion, and/or maybe horseradish (assuming it isn't horseradish mustard).

Eggs as stated earlier
corn beef hash

fried potatoes
french fries (which i do not eat anymore but if i did they would require ketchup)
perogies
kabasi
bologna sandwich
pasty (only wisconsin people know of this)
brats
and the number one item to require ketchup is a 30$ steak in a nice restaurant

The thought of ketchup on a bologna sandwich almost makes me physically ill.

Only cheese and mustard OR mayo should be put on a bologna sandwich, unless you're eating the fancy, thick deli-style bologna, in which case lettuce and tomato are also recommended, and mayo should be preferred over mustard.

I freaking love run-on sentences.

EDIT: Miracle Whip is also acceptable.

Hmm, never had bread that way.

Besides, we weren't "dirt poor," just lower-middle class. My parents were teenagers when I was born, if that helps you understand.

Actually, I imagine that the reason my mom made sugar rice was less because we weren't that well-off than because she also grew up eating it. My maternal grandparents *did* grow up dirt poor, in Jellico, Tennessee and I'm sure my mom learned to make sugar rice from my grandmother.

[stanky]

Alright I'll give it a try. Do you just add the sugar after the rice is cooked or do you dissolve the sugar it the water then cook the rice in the water. And I'm sry if I came off as a dick, I was just goofin on ya.

I'm honestly not sure; I've never made it myself. You might be able to google it? The way I remember the taste, though, I imagine it was mixed into the rice after it was cooked.

And no, you didn't come off as a dick. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I guess it tastes like chicken skin from a barbecued chicken, and of course like salt also. It looks just like salt, but either yellow or green very very good on chips (fries)

I hate ketchup but I LOVE it on my Mac'n'cheese. Anything else that ketchup can go on BBQ sauce can go on better. Ketchup and Grilled cheese the ketchup is optional. NEVER PUT KETCHUP ON A HOT DOG--hot dogs should have mustard, onions, tomaton slices, cucumber slices, celery salt, and some relish. And for your Maxwell Street polish sausage you need sauerkraut and mustard...yummy... /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

The only time I ever have a problem with someone's ketchup use is when they put it on a steak.

[jar]

I don't use much ketchup. The main reason is that I grew up on homemade ketchup, so the store bought stuff just tastes like crap to me. I pretty much never eat commercial ketchup on anything but fast food burgers and things like that. When I'm at my parents house, I'll use homemade ketchup on things like hamburgers, meatloaf, scrabled eggs, scrapple, etc.

Hot sauce is for eggs.
