I think my husband is a freak :tease: when it comes to ketchup. He pretty much likes it on everything...except the obvious ketchup things. Hot dogs, for one. I eat ketchup (or catsup depending on your preference) w/ breakfast sausages. He thinks that is weird. I think it is weird he doesn't.

So, who is the weird one? Wait. Don't answer that.

I eat ketchup w/ fries, and w/ my breakfast sausages. I eat it on hamburgers. I don't really eat hot dogs, but if I do have one, it is w/ ketchup. I am also admittedly whisky tango and eat ketchup w/ steak. :blush: I vote a big fat no to ketchup on mac and cheese and eggs.

What do you eat ketchup on? Or what obvious ketchup related food to you prefer w/out?

I put ketchup on hot dogs too, and Scott thinks that is crazy. He says mustard is for hotdogs...I like ketchup on burgers, fries and eggs as well. I like dipping grilled cheese in ketchup...and I like ketchup on baked potatoes...and I like dipping mozzarella sticks in ketchup rather than marinara sauce (although it has been a while since I ate a mozzarella stick). I used to put it on steak as a kid, but not anymore.

I wouldn't put it on breakfast sausages...I don't eat them that often but if I do, I like to dip them in maple syrup.

You're definitely a freak Sandy. :lol: ;)

Anyway, I eat it on the normal things... fries, burgers, hotdogs, onion rings, etc. When I was young I ate it on scrambled eggs but I haven't done that in years.

I like ketchup on normal things too, but I also like them on scrambled eggs. I guess that's a little not normal. :)

I eat ketchup on hamburgers and hot dogs. (and mustard, I like both.) Once in a while I'll dip my fries in ketchup, but that depends on my mood. Nothing else though.

Greg puts ketchup on his mac&cheese. :dead:

I like ketchup on burgers, meatloaf, hot dogs, eggs and fries.


Dh eats ketchup on bologna sandwiches- blek:puke:
I know bologna's not that different than hot dogs- maybe its the cold meat thing. I don't know I just think its gross!

Barb
November 4th, 2006, 02:03 PM
Oh yeah, meatloaf. I also put ketchup on meatloaf.

Mandi

Forgot about meatloaf. :nod:

I will only eat Ketchup on the normal things. Hotdogs, Hamburgers, meatloaf, fries. THAT IS IT. I think it is so gross to see it on eggs and mac N Cheese. Or anything else for that matter :lol:

Some of you are FREAKS. FAH-REAKS! :lol:

I only eat ketchup on my veggie burgers, and even then, its a dime-sized amount. Occasionally (more not than often) I will eat it with fries. I am not a huge fan.

Gee...and I thought my husband was a freak for eating it w/ his hashbrowns :lol:

I only use ketchup on hotdogs or on burgers. I'll eat ketchup with fries but I have to dip the fry into the ketchup, I HATE having it squirted/splattered onto the fries :lol: and forget about ketchup and eggs ..I tried it once eyons ago 'cause my ex ate it but I about lost my breakfast after trying it lol.

You know you want a big honkin' piece of meat soaking in a bunch of ketchup. :lick:

I don't like it on anything. I am not a fan of it. Of course if a burger has already been premade and it's on it, I can handle it. But I much prefer it not on it. I feel like it washes out the taste of things :dunno:

Tony eats it on normal things like on Sausage Sizzle sandwiches, hotdogs, pies, sausage rolls, hot chips etc etc

I love me some McDonalds Ketchup!:lick:

I put it on the normal stuff. Not Eggs or mac and cheese.

This makes me think of :pulp: "You know what they put on fries in Europe? Mayonaise, they f-ing drown 'em in that shit." :lol:

I'm not a huge ketchup fan. :dunno:

I like it on meatloaf and hashbrowns....and that's really about it! I also like to mix with mayo for fries....but not by itself, it must be mixed with mayo or I don't want any. :)

We don't eat a lot of ketchup in our house. Paul likes it on burgers and fries....and Alex likes it on most stuff....but only a little bit at a time. I don't buy the Costco-size bottles or anything. :lol:

I think ketchup is disgusting!

November 4th, 2006, 07:29 PM
It never even occurred to me that people didn't eat ketchup?????? Let alone think it was disgusting!!! :wtf: :lol: What IS disgusting is back when he was a kid and his mom was poor, DH said she used to add water to the ketchup bottle to make it last longer. Now that is gross. :puke:

schwanda
November 4th, 2006, 07:31 PM
That is gross.
I've never liked ketchup. My older brother used to try to gross me out by using ketchup on everything. Ewwww.
Nathaniel will eat ketchup with a spoon if we'd let him. YUCK!

I like ketchup with sausage as well. Besides that I seem to stick to things like burgers, fries and hot dogs.

As a child, all my friends put it in their mac-n-cheese and even then I never got it. :dead:

pam
November 4th, 2006, 08:06 PM
Burgers, hot dogs (it's rare for me to eat them), meat loaf, fries, hash browns & onion rings. I love eggs with ketchup or salsa.

I do not understand putting it in mac & cheese or adding it to tomato/spaghetti/marinara sauce :puke:

Bridget
November 4th, 2006, 08:10 PM
Sandy I'm WT too because I also like it on steak. :scan:

I eat it on hamburgers and hot dogs but members of my family do only mustard. I also put it on fries, ORs and hash browns. I'll put it on eggy breakfast casserole dishes but not other eggs. Oh and corndogs. :scan: Yeah, I like corndogs.

My husband puts it on sandwiches. :errr:

Bridget
November 4th, 2006, 08:11 PM
Oh and I don't put it on meatloaf. :nono: :lol:

gulp!
November 4th, 2006, 08:54 PM
People, ketchup does NOT belong on a hot dog!! :nono:

I only eat it on burgers (preferably with mustard, too), meatloaf, and french fries. Sometimes on the kids' leftover chicken nuggets.

Bridget
November 4th, 2006, 08:55 PM
Ketchup on hot dogs tastes good to me. Sorry! :lol:

November 4th, 2006, 09:00 PM
I love ketchup!! I eat it on alot but not eggs or mac & cheese. I like it on...

Hotdogs
Hamburgers
Corn dogs
Meatloaf
To dip my chicken in
Sometimes with steak but I prefer A-1 Sauce
With plain potato chips
I also use it with my spaghetti sauce.

I will only eat ketchup with french fries and they must be dipped in it, not slathered with it. I do not eat ketchup unless it is on a fry. I love me some homefries/hash browns but they do not get ketchup. Why? It's not a fry.

I will eat my ketchup and french fries with my Mom's roast beef gravy (but not any other kind of gravy so I don't eat gravy with fries very often) but DH thinks gravy and ketchup and fries is a gross combo. He says you can have either ketchup or gravy with fries but not both.

KimT: My Dad used to put ketchup on fried bologna, the real kind, "wax bologna" not the kind from a package, if YKWIM.

Bev! I :love: you fellow Canadians who eat fries w/ gravy. When I do that down here, people look at me like I have three heads!!!

I guess they've never tried poutine! (aka:heart attack in a bowl):lol: I eat ketchup on lots of things including eggs AND mac'n cheese :shuffle: and I love ketchup potato chips.

If I never saw ketchup again, I wouldn't miss it. I HATE the stuff. :dead: It makes things soggy and sweet. Yuck.

TtownAnne
November 7th, 2006, 11:44 PM
Ah, I LOOOOOOOOOOVE poutine from Canada! Yum. French fries with gravy is the greatest. :drool:

:wtf: thought of ketchup on eggs? That is just horrible, let alone horrifying to look at. FIL likes ketchup on his sunny side up eggs! :puke: I only eat ketchup on french fries, hamburgers, and on hot dogs if we don't have dijon mustard (I can't eat that nuclear yellow French's stuff!)

We eat chips with gravy here too, that's not exclusive to Canadians :) (chips = french fries, tomato sauce = ketchup).

We also eat it with sausages. I can't imagine maple syrup on a sausage :puke:

I don't eat a lot of tomato sauce but Harry eats it with everything. EVERYTHING. If it gets him to eat, I'm all for it :dunno:

I wouldn't put tomato sauce directly on an egg, but I do like it on bacon and egg sandwiches.

Michele
November 8th, 2006, 07:23 AM
Gravy fries were a big late night snack or hangover treat in Vermont, where I went to school. YUM!

I also just want to clarify that I only put ketchup on scrambled eggs...the thought of it on sunnyside up makes me want to barf...I don't know why! (I think sunnyside up in general just skeeves me out a bit) :lol:

Bev

Anne, without the cheese curds it's not poutine, it's just fries and gravy! :lol:

See, I'd rather just put a tomato on the sandwich.

I know - those were supposed to be two separate statements, but there was no way to make that too clear. :) I do love both, tho!

Anne, without the cheese curds it's not poutine, it's just fries and gravy! :lol:

I like ketchup on a lot of stuff:

scrambled eggs (not any other kind of egg, though)
hash browns/home fries
hamburgers
hot dogs
french fries

I love french fries with gravy, too! Yum! :lick:

Kristen
November 8th, 2006, 12:36 PM
Fries, but I'm not a huge fries fan
Hotdogs, when we do eat them.

I don't really use ketchup that often.

Alysia

I will eat Ketchup on hamburgers, fries, and hashbrowns.

I would much rather have salsa on my scrambled eggs! :lick:

And I only do mustard on hot dogs!

Jillian
November 8th, 2006, 01:15 PM
I put Ketchup on fries only when I was pregnant. :dunno:

I like it on cheeseburgers, but not much, I won't special order my cheeseburger to come without it, but at home I don't use it.

That's it...we don't even have ketchup in the house since DH doesn't especially like it either...just on cheeseburgers for him as well...

Bev
November 8th, 2006, 02:26 PM

Whaaaat? You're :screwy: :lol:

I've never met anyone who didn't like fries before.

Ok Anne, I understand what this is, but how do you pronouce this word? The way I read it, it appears to be a dirty word for a body part. :lol: Ok, sorry. :silly:

Ketchup belongs on burgers and fries. I don't know anything else it belongs on. In my opinion it's a cardinal sin to put ketchup on eggs, hot dogs or meatloaf! :secret: Melted cheese belongs on meatloaf!

Becky, you pronounce it poo-tin and it is very common in Quebec and Ottawa. And other places with a large francophone population.
