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.

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.)
 
@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.

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.

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?
 
I can appreciate the flavor of a good steak and the general abhorrence of putting ketchup on steak by most. But if I'm home grilling, I love a medium rare steak along with ketchup. Something about the steak juices mixing wth the ketchup is heaven.
 
I should despise ketchup. It is the only thing I eat that has high fructose cornsyrup in it. I eat very little sugar and just don't have a taste for sweets at all.

But I love ketchup. And mayonnaise. And use both liberally.

I believe it is a lifelong reaction to all of the bone dry sandwiches I was fed as a child. Two slices of wonder bread with a slice of baloney in between. They were so dry the bread would stick to the roof of my mouth until I physically pried it away.

Ketchup and mayo went from being the constant saviors of poorly prepared food to a predictable constant (i.e. comfort food).

If my taste sensibilities are in question, I blame childhood trauma.
 
Top reasons to not eat restaurant ketchup unless you know for certain you are using a new bottle:

(1) Bottles are refilled daily, usually using a cheap brand, and they contain who knows how many layers of strata from the bottom up.
(2) Waitress uses same rag to wipe top of refilled bottle that she uses to wipe the table.
(3) Kids dip their knife into bottle to lick off the ketchup and then dip it back into the bottle again for another taste. Replace lid afterwards.

Food for thought.

Close but a Chicago dog isn't served on French bread. It's a Vienna beef dog on a poppy seed steamed bun with yellow mustard, neon green relish, tomato slices, diced white onion, dill pickle spear, celery salt and optional sport peppers.

Need to work out those issues. Sounds like childhood trauma has morphed into some type of self loathing/self harm scenario via punishing yourself with an abhorrent condiment.

You're a good person Tdrink. you can stop eating Ketchup now.

I know one thing:

Chin basically called himself a foodie while also saying he loves ketchup and onions suck. He might need professional help.

I'm the opposite of a foodie. I'm a foodie libertarian. My choice in food toppings has zero effect on anyone else's and vice versa. Top away as you feel free.

But you do get judged by ruining food with onions. Shows a lack of culinary skills. Cooking with onions is like having to get chicks drunk on Southern Comfort to make any progress with them.

Onions are one of the foundations of cooking, pretty much sweat onions and garlic every time I cook.

Onions sir, are one of the four major food enhancements that are capable of improving the taste of anything from the savory side of the food spectrum -- the other three being bacon, peppers and cheese.

I had dinner recently with my brother at a local seafood joint. He put ketchup on his fish from his fish & chips meal. He does it with whole belly clams too. My cousins refuse to eat with him.

Malt vinegar or cider vinegar is the norm on fish and chips. Of course ketchup has vinegar in it so c'est la vie.

Are you sure he didn't just try to put ketchup on the chips and he accident splilled it all over his fish by mistake?
 
Love salads. Give me a spring mix, cucumber, pepper, roasted pepper, tomatoes, carrots, corn, beats, beans, raw or cooked broccoli, cauliflower, parsley, peppermint leaves, strawberries, grapes or raisons, nuts, cheeses and any dressing. Make this almost every day. But hold the raw onions. They cause a reaction that makes me feel lousy for days. I'm not sure if the reaction triggered a distaste for raw onions or if the distaste is part of the same syndrome, but no raw onions.

Sautéed onions are a different story. Love them. Love making a dish of sautéed onions, zucchini and yellow squash. Love sautéed onions on a lot of things and no negative reaction.

I love eating now but growing up I hated to eat. Even suspenders couldn't hold up my pants. Particularly hated meat. Only way I could avoid puking was to disguise taste with ketchup.
