"Adults" who use Ketchup

[mauconnfan]

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.

Bingo ^^^^^

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.

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.

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

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.

Another time I didn't have time to shower for a date, so I sprayed Febreze all over my clothes. Let's just say it worked like a charm. He he...

To each his own...

Me... I find it very useful for making sauces as it contains tomato, vinegar, salt, sugar, spices, etc...

What I strongly recommend is.. To use it as a jewelry cleaner.... No kidding... The acid from the tomato and vinegar will do wonders against crud on jewelry. Try it and let me know if it has as good a result as we have gotten with it. We used the inexpensive great value brand. My wife and I were shocked. Good luck. Small molecules should lift larger ones. Good luck !!!! So don't throw out your ketchup until you use it on your jewelry first.

Cleans guns and cures cancer too.

Also, ketchup killed Kennedy.

Za'atar is one of my favorite secret ingredients. It's got magic in it.

I'll call it a draw with you. Because the places I've been eating at, while Kosher, cater to an international clientele. Onions available on the side to add to the Israel Salad.

Because,,,,,onions are gross.

It just tastes DAMN good.. No other explanation for me

Never loan money to one who uses catsup/ketchup on nearly everything, as they may have no more common sense than that with your money. (I read that somewhere several years ago.)

Im told Hunts is better.

What about Brooks?

Ketchup is hot sauce for the weak.

Poor man's steak sauce.

@August_West .

It hasn't been easy but I'm trying.

Today's late brunch. Bacon, egg and cheese sliders, fries, and salad. With a Tuborg draft.

 

[Bliss]

Your hot dog game is strong. Mustard, chopped onions, and relish are hopefully available.

Chicago dogs are the best: Sausage, Brite-Green relish, "sport" peppers, mustard, onions tomatoes, dills, French bread, and very cold beer. This thread is killing me.

 

[Bliss]

Anyway... Heinz only. I'm a traditionalist... burgers & fries and eggs n' hashbrowns need ketchup. Oh and a little on the side with a grill cheese sandwich for dipping works too.

Heinz regular or Simply Heinz?
