mmm. . .ketchup. . .

Everyone I know thinks I’m crazy because I put ketchup on a lot of things. Is putting ketchup on burgers, hot dogs, rice, potato chips, eggs, fries, onion rings etc. etc. etc., weird to you? Everyone else thinks it is.

~~rice?

yeah. . .what’s wrong with that? I like honey on rice too.

~~Might give it a try…

when no one is looking, of course…

I don’t know, maybe you’re just weird…

define weird and while your at it, define normal.

~~Weird = ozonebaby baking a rice and ketchup casserole…
then she puts some on a plate, doesn’t leave the stove area,
instead she eats it standing up with a butter knife while nodding her
head to Len’s Steal My Sunshine through her headphones
of which one is broken…

Normal = ozonebaby baking a rice pilaf…
then some ketchup accidentally splats onto the rice… She eats
it anyway and has an excuse…

Ketchup is evil.

What, no macaroni and cheese? You are weird.

This is the funniest shit I’ve read all day.

I eat catsup on everything too, it seems normal. I’m kind of a condiment junkie though.

Swiping ozonebaby’s ketchup bottle! Hah! I needed another weapon for the foodfight thread!

Hey come back here with that!! You just don’t like ketchup Anticay!! What did it ever do to you?

Ketchup isn’t evil, it’s heveanly!!

Len’s Steal My Sunshine, whatever that is, and how did you know one side of my headphones is broken?! And before you say it, it’s not because of my music! My music is great!

See my sig: :smiley:

My 6 year old would eat shoe leather if you doused it with ketchup. But he won’t eat his Mother’s meatloaf…

Steamed rice with hotdog bits and ketchup. mmmm
Scrambled eggs with hotdog bits and ketchup. MMMM
pretty much anything tastes better with hotdog bits and ketchup! :slight_smile:

~~ozonebaby, FYI I wrote to two of the top ketchup manufacturers
with the questions:

What foods do you recommend using your ketchup on?

Do you, would you, suggest putting ketchup on rice?
One company didn’t even write back…

The one that did sent me the following:

Dear Anticay,

We are sorry that we’re not able to give you any answers
to your questions regarding the use of ketchup at this
point and time. When your letter was read by our staff it
appears that the entire office floor was overtaken with
laughter to the extent that they could not continue their
work, nor maintain a normal work environment. One employee
went into labor as a result of reading your letter.
Also, a fight broke out between a few of the product
information staff and two company vice presidents whose
offices were nearby.
This quickly involved the interest of union officials and we
are now faced with the possibility of a temporary stoppage
of work.

Please do not let this deter you from enjoying our products
in the future.
Sincerely,

Karen BXXXXX
Chief Information Officer
XX XXXXX Co.

That was the “official” letter… I’m not going to even think
about posting the hand written private note she mailed along with it…
It had the word rice in it many times but not the word ketchup…

I like ketchup a lot, but in a realistic way… Lets get real…
Reality is my beat…

All right, let me take this a point at a time…

**Is putting ketchup on burgers…weird to you? **
Ketchup on burgers is acceptable. Though personally, I prefer other condiments like mustard, mayo, BBQ sauce, or various dressings. I would only use ketchup as a last resort.

…hot dogs…
NO! An abomination! Mustard only on dogs!

…rice…
Are you insane?

…potato chips…
Well, putting ketchup on potato chips seems kinda silly. But when I was in Canada they had Ketchup flavored chips, and they were damn good. So I’ll give you this one.

…eggs…
Ketchup on scrambled eggs (only) is yummy.

…fries…
See comments under “burgers”. (But also add malt vinegar for fries)

…onion rings…
Yes. Ketchup would be my first choice for onion rings.

Weird: someone who puts ketchup on rice.
Normal: someone who would never, under any circumstances, put ketchup on rice.

Ketchup is good on just about anything. I wouldn’t put it on rice though.

[Dirty Harry investigating “38 caliber vasectomy” in Sudden Impact in disgust at fellow officer]No one puts ketchup on a hot dog[/DH]

cracking up so much at the letter from the ketchup company can’t talk yet. . .

not yet. . .

Ok, getting a grip. . .

[deep breath] i feel all alone, no one else likes ketchup on rice except me. time to call in the friend, anubis. . .

what’s wrong with that? i like ketchup too :D! yummmmm . . . :wink:
