I am from Ohio, so I grew up on this stuff. Tell me what things that you use ketchup for that others will find gross. My list is below. I will add more as they come to me. This does not discount using other condiments. My wife looks at me like I am disgusting, but she dips her pizza in ranch, so we are even. You can add other gross things as well like hot sauce on your banana muffin too if you like. Gross me out goons.

Mac and cheese
Hot Dogs/chili dogs/corn dogs etc.
Burgs
Fried chicken sandwiches
Eggs (all except benedict)
Fries/hash browns/tater tots etc.
Fried fish/fish sandwiches
Overcooked steak
Grilled cheese
Onion rings
Breakfast sausage/smoked sausage/brats/ etc.
Bacon/BLT's

I don't eat ketchup on anything. It's like pickles - anything they're on, it just tastes like ketchup+pickles, not a burger or whatever. It's way too sweet.

People knew this about me in high school and their favorite thing to do to mess with me was try and sneak ketchup into my food at lunch or give me ketchup packets and basically ketchup can gently caress off.

There seems to be a line in the sand whether the love or hate it for many people.

I used to put ketchup in instant ramen until I discovered Sriracha.
Now it tastes even worst but at least it's spicy.

Fries should go with mayonnaise, not ketchup.
Something some might find gross that I absolutely love is mixing mayo with yellow mustard, spread it over 2-3 eggs you've got a breakfast of champions.

I don't think I'm a big fan of ketchup either, op. We can be friends.


Pickles are the worst loving thing.

Pickles are awesome and I have tried the mayo fries thing in Ireland a few times. It wasn't bad, but it really didn't do it for me. I mixed ketchup and mayo and it was pretty decent though.

I am going to add waffer fries with nacho cheese. I really only get them from a regional chain called Mr. Hero, but I mix a few drops with the cheese sauce for the perfect tang.

People who don't like pickles don't deserve happiness in life.
Granted if you don't have pickles I can't see how you could ever truly be happy to start with, but whatever.

I just picked up some pickled asparagus from the butcher shop that stocks a lot of local/regional products. It is really loving good and makes my pee stink on the reg, but it is $9 a jar compared to about $4 for a jar of Claussens. They are pretty dope in bloody marys though.

I have tried ketchup in a few other countries. I wouldn't eat it either, because you don't refrigerate it and it goes a bit off.

They're better than the non-pickled form, cucumbers, but they still are overpowering and don't complement the other flavors of a burger.

but seriously cucumbers can gently caress off too, nothing but foul water in vegetable form, somehow simultaneously tasting like nothing but also tasting offensive. Also people think its cute/trendy to call them "cukes" which pisses me off.

You are just trolling now. Cucumbers with salt and vinegar are amazing.

I never had them in this form, but I am confident in saying they'd still be poo poo. Put salt and vinegar on something better.

but I really do hate the things. Specifically in raw form on sandwiches/in salads. If they taste like zucchini cooked I might not have as big of a problem with them, but raw? Throw them in the trash.

Cucumbers are way better than zucchini. Maybe you got C-Diff and it threw your taste buds out of whack? This is coming from a smoker.

there's no cocktail sauce without ketchup

This is true. Heavy horseradish in it from the garden kicks rear end. My mother in law makes it and she cubes a bunch of different cheeses that we dip in the cocktail sauce with toothpicks for parties and it is awesome.

It's probably admittedly at least partially psychological. Both of my parents are/were vehemently anti-condiment/toppings in general. I never even tried ketchup (or spaghetti with sauce, or a salad, or basically anything that wasn't plain meat and cooked vegetables with salt/pepper/butter) until I was a teenager when other people started pointing out how weird it was and I got self-conscious.

Jesus christ. That is awful. I grew up in an English household, so breakfast was awesome. However, drat near every dinner required gravy for flavor.

My dad's still like that. When I took him to switzerland he kept demanding that I translate "if any tomatoes touch my food, I will literally die" (e: to be clear, he wouldn't, he just thinks that's the only way they'll listen to his requests) and "can I have a bowl of un-dressed lettuce instead of regular salad" into german for him if the waiter didn't speak english. I wish I was joking, it was embarrassing.

Different countries have different palates. That is for goddamned sure. When I went to Hungary I was hungover as gently caress and they had a 20 page menu. I just wanted a chicken caesar salad and it came out with steaming chicken on wilting from the chicken lettuce with caesar dressing that tasted like it was opened 3 years prior. It was unpleasant.

The secret is out now folks. To make the famous Utah Fry sauce, you mix ketchup and mayonnaise. A bit of hot sauce as well if you are adventurous.

mustard is a superior sauce

That is a fair assessment even if I disagree. One guy puts mustard on eggs which I think is weird as gently caress. I have jalepeno mustard that I love. I put it on bologna sandwiches and oven roasted ham. It is good.

I had a friend at university who couldn't eat anything unless it had ketchup on it. One time at an Italian restaurant with some friends she asked the waiter for some ketchup to go with her food, and I do not think I will ever forget the look of horror, despair and disgust in that man's eyes.

We have no lives and we are connoisseurs of the finest sauces. I have an amazing hot sauce called Aardvark that makes me clean my colon, but it tastes soooo damned good. My work toilet paper is worse than prison paper. I have to plan ahead before I throw down with that stuff. I love it, but it doesn't love me.
