Ookay, so it's like a condiment. Interesting.

I moved from Iowa to Texas when I was 13. It was then I learned that "only Yankees put ketchup on their hamburgers" (same goes for hot dogs). I still use ketchup. Mustard will ruin a good burger.

I've lived in Idaho, Washington, California, Hawaii, Tennessee, Iowa, and Arizona.

I remember some folks in certain states got downright offended regarding the improper use of condiments the further East and South you went.

Around here, we have fry sauce, and it is the ONLY thing to use for fries and tater tots...

Fry sauce - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fry_sauce
Fry sauce (commonly known as salsa rosada, fancy sauce, burger sauce, or mayo-ketchup) is a condiment often served with French Fries or tostones (twice-fried plantain slices) in many places in the world. It is usually a combination of one part ketchup and two parts mayonnaise.

And up here in Idaho, it is so much more than mayo and ketchup. Mayo and ketchup blended together is bland and does not taste like real fry sauce.

Idaho Fry Sauce Recipe - Allrecipes.com
allrecipes.com/recipe/217152/idaho-fry-sauce
Whisk together 1 cup mayonnaise plus 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, sugar, salt, paprika, ground mustard, and onion powder until smooth. Stir in the ketchup, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce until well blended. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes. Store covered in refrigerator.

Store bought is nearly never as good as what the fast food places serve, but Stephen's isn't too bad...

Ketchup? I like it but, do not want anything swimming in it. Am at an IHOP now grabbing a bite before the dentist. Yup, i put ketchup on my chicken fajita omelette, just a bit though....

funny thing, last weekend was at a car parts swap meet promoting my upcoming drags. I see a guy with a hot dog cart so, strolled over there to have a dog. He seemed a bit bothered that I ordered it with ketchup and onions! gosh, what is the big deal? First time in my life that happened.

Also, fries and rings are always better with ketchip IMO

am not a pickle or mustard guy

Everyone else I know either likes or loves ketchup, but I don't like it at all...I always thought it looked gross.

I'm with you - I find ketchup too sweet and just - nope.

Plus ketchup just means that you have yet to discover the delights of

The teriyaki place up the road has a white sauce that's to die for. the owner's already been offered to bottle it up and resell it but has turned it down. his recipe is a mystery. even the workers there don't know the ingredients. the only thing that's for sure is that one of the ingredients in mayo. i love it. and for me saying it's pretty good means something because ordinarily i cant stand mayo.

What is that?!

Salad cream is a creamy, pale yellow condiment based on an emulsion of about 25–50 percent oil in water, emulsified by egg yolk and acidulated by spirit vinegar. It may include other ingredients such as sugar, mustard, salt, thickener, spices, flavouring and colouring


Its ssooo good
