So I'm reading this correctly - mustard and mayo only on a burger ? I mean, you're not pretending that is some kind of norm, or an accepted standard for burgers ? Pretty that is not remotely true.

If you want your burger with mayo and mustard only, good for you. But the majority of the universe puts ketchup on a burger - often times in addition to other things.

My tastes are driven primarily by some combination of salty and sweet. Ketchup is a primary source of sweet on a burger, for one.

That said, I don't drench other foods in ketcup and never have. But I definitely know people that like to put it on all kinds of things from mac and cheese to scrambled eggs, etc. Not my thing, but if that's what you like, I'm not sure what my purpose would be in pretending that my opinion should matter. But clearly, 7 pages of responses says that everybody seems to think their opinion about what other people eat matters.

Try mustard and mayo together one time. Without the pollution of ketchup in the mixture the two form a totally different taste together.
 
No! A good burger needs only lettuce & tomato on it. Onion if you wish.
 
Well, as long as we are reviving this thread....

Last night eating an absolute boss chicken shwarma sandwich with some fries and some Heinz ketchup.

Don't go off topic on the Stella. The choices were Stella or Carlsberg. As happens about once a year, I think Stella isn't too bad. I'll try one. And it always sucks.

Stella is the antithesis of commercial ketchup. With ketchup I'll think no way should I put ketchup on this. Then I do it and the food is always better.

Not sure if this was mentioned in this huge ketchup thread but the restaurants that give you those little thimbles of ketchup, ONE mind you. WTF are they thinking, I need some for my burger and more for my fries, lets more!

Plan B is notorious for this as are others. Bring me gobs!

Shawarma only had hummus and pickled cabbage. Ketchup was strictly for the fries.

At mamouns they have ketchup bottles filled with a brown hot sauce that's straight fire.
Perfect for schwarma.
No ketchup in the place.

I don't give a flying f--- what some half-witted condiment Nazi thinks.

I'll put ketchup on whatever the hell I want.

Ketchup = America.

Don't like it? Feel free to move to France or wherever they'll serve your dainty ass the pinky-up condiment of your choosing.

In the 17th century, the Chinese mixed a concoction of pickled fish and spices and called it (in the Amoy dialect) kôe-chiap or kê-chiap (鮭汁, Mandarin Chinese guī zhī, Cantonese gwai1 zap1) meaning the brine of pickled fish (鮭, salmon; 汁, juice) or shellfish. By the early 18th century, the table sauce had made it to the Malay states (present day Malaysia and Singapore), where it was discovered by English explorers. The Indonesian-Malay word for the sauce was kecap (pronounced "kay-chap"). That word evolved into the English word "ketchup". English settlers then took ketchup with them to the American colonies.

Trump can promote ketchup in China!

My co-worker had a spicy relish of pickled diced tomatoes, peppers and red onion.

I'm Way too lazy to read all the replies, so I apologize if I repeat an answer.

Ketchup is great for many reasons. I have very fond memories of French fries, hot dogs, and cheese burgers growing up. Without Ketchup that food would not be the same. Ketchup is like a warm blanket that is wrapped up in a delicious tangy dippy food. Its the best American flavor enhancer and I love it. It is gross on anything but breakfasty, americany food. It s a Zen experience.

Sounds like he had salsa.

Veggies were chopped more than diced and lightly tossed in the vinaigrette. More of a salad than salsa.

It's called Israeli Salad and when prepared correctly it's top notch. And I hate all veggies.

I've seen plenty of Israeli or Jerusalem salad. Usually just tomatoes and cucumber.

Too many onions. Any chop salads, which are usually very good, I need to be sure no onions and they look at me like I have 3 eyes.

You're a wise man. Onions in any form (other than onion powder in commercial ketchup) are disgusting. Anyone who chooses to add onions to food lacks taste, balance and culinary skill. Adding onion basically means you suck as a cook.

That's pure nonsense. Onions are a necessary building block to millions of recipes. The Holy Trinity? Mirepoix?

When I was in my early 20's, I worked at a restaurant. I wanted to make dinner for some girl and asked the chef what I should make. He said "Invite her over for 7. At 6:50, throw some chopped onion and garlic in a little olive oil over medium heat. When she walks in, she'll say "What smells so good?!?" and from there, you're golden. Just throw whatever you want in the pan. Shrimp? Chicken? Mushrooms? Vegetables? Serve it over pasta and you're good." FYI, it worked like a charm. She walked in and, on point, said "What smells so good?!?!"

It was probably the cheap smell of a showered Deepster with Musk from Avon not the onions.
