DYK Kia Loves Ketchup?

[RockyMTblue2]

"Kia loves ketchup," Williams said. "I don't think a human should love ketchup as much as she does. She'll put it on literally everything."

"I remember our freshman year and I was struggling to learn the plays," Williams said. "I went to her dorm and we were drawing on the mirror with markers so she could help me learn the plays. She's always taking the time to make sure I'm good, on an off the court."

Adamec puts in the work. A really cool, fun piece about our seniors.

Nurse, Williams take center stage on Senior Night

I guess their Frshman year, one lived with Courtney Ekmark and the other lived with Sadie Edwards, at least for the 1st semester.

My son is the same way as Kia! He would get ketchup for his birthday and Christmas when he was little! Of course it had to be Heinz, lol! Mods I hope you dont get fined for that, lol!

Ketchup? Ketchup is yuk.

Absolutely, totally, unconditionally true.

And still...

I'm with Kia.

The only reason french fries exist is to hold ketchup. The only ketchup that exists is Heinz.

Mayo is too strong and that yellow, slimy baby diaper stuff is just too gross.

Now I really wish I hadn't looked at this thread.

Had a guy from India put maple syrup on his fries.

As children, my brother and I began to put Heinz (the only true Ketchup) on everything...so our mother stopped buying it.

To her horror, we switched to Hellmann's (the only true mayo.) She didn't take that away for fear of what we might have resorted to next.


As an aside, Hellmann's is called "Best Foods" outside of the Northeast.

Ever had a baked beans sandwich, with ketchup, of course. How about just a ketchup sandwich? Bread, butter, and ketchup. mmmm... Where did healthy eating go?

I would add that yellow/white stuff looks too much like what happens when you pop a zit. The other stuff is a menstrual cycle.

Mustard forever!

That actually sounds interesting.

That actually sounds interesting.

Perhaps you're of an age to remember the old Bob and Ray radio show. Somehow they were able to turn the ridiculous into high comedy (or perhaps I listened during one of those upside down periods of my life where things that weren't high seemed so). Anyway, they had a running skit on the show where they were low on cash and going into business for themselves seemed like a good idea. Their "Eureka!" moment came when they decided what to go into business doing. Toast! They would start, then franchise locations, for the "House of Toast." And their hook that brought customers in and keep them coming back would be that you, as the customer, could decide which side of the toast would be buttered. Long before "Would you like fries with that?" became the catchphrase of a generation just entering the workforce, "Would you like that buttered on the near side of the far side?" was how the House of Toast would simplify the sandwich industry.

I suppose it would be nice if this rant had a point so how about this? I cede any interest I have (which I don't actually have anyway) in the maple syrup flavored french fry to you. You can go into business and I'll bet you make every bit as much money as Bob and Ray did with their idea.

Ketchup fans, alert! Try this: Two parts ketchup, Two parts chili sauce, one part siracha. Shake it to mix. Put it on absolutely everything.

You’re welcome. My good deed for the day.

I use a similar mix atop meatloaf before sticking it in the oven.

You're assuming guys who are waxing poetic about ketchup know what siracha is. Anybody able to give me a quick lesson on using google?

 

[BigBird]

OK ...

Sriracha is a type of hot sauce or chili sauce made from a paste of chili peppers, distilled vinegar, garlic, sugar, and salt. It is named after the coastal city of Si Racha, in Chonburi Province of eastern Thailand, where it may have been first produced for dishes served at local seafood restaurants.

It may sound exotic, but it is available in any good grocery store. It is typically found in either the condiments aisle or with asian foods.

Enjoy!

I was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pa. ,the home of Heinz and the world's best ketchup. Although ketchup is no longer made in the Pittsburgh plant, Heinz continues a decades long presence there. Heinz Field is home to the Steelers, and Heinz Hall is a beautiful venue for entertainment of all kinds. The Heinz family has been generous to Pittsburgh, and as a native, I just want to thank Kia and all the Heinz ketchup lovers the world over for their civic support of a grateful city.
