Bbq sauce

it's for children since their taste buds aren't developed yet

It's a topical ointment intended for use on mid to severe sunburn. It's also effective for treating minor chemical burns and dry skin. Do not apply on open wounds and avoid contact with eyes.

it's a very cheap alternative to tomato sauces and salsas for the economically challenged.

So many people have only had shit like Heinz that's 99% corn syrup. Try some actual ketchup and you'll discover that it's a goat condiment.

It's the essential ingredient in Chicago style pizza.

I understood this.

Seriously, currysauce, mayonnaise and onions (speciaal) is where it's at. Or peanut sauce, mayo and onions (oorlog). Fact: the Dutch have a superior frituur culture.

It's pretty great to dip croque monsieurs in. Dip, not smother.

This. When made from fresh tomatoes, it's infinitely better. Still, it's basically tomatoes, vinegar and sugar. A lot of factory ketchups are made with real sugar though, and lots of it. I had a summer job in a sauce and condiments factory once, and a 1000kg kettle of ketchup required 500kg of sugar. We had to haul, cut and empty 20 25kg bags for every batch. The rest was tomato puree, a shitton of vinegar and some chemicals for binding, conserving and taste amelioration. I haven't eaten much ketchup after that job.

eggs
potatoes
meatloaf

pretty much it really

Gourmet cooking.

Ketchup goes on french fries, that's it, really.

I've stopped drowning everything in ketchup like I did when I was 13, but there is one exception: Chicken Tenders/Fingers/whatever.

That shit goes in the ketchup lake. Great combo.

Fries too.

Cheap sausage.

Anything deep fried goes great with ketchup, that's pretty much all I use it for

I eat my tendies with hot sauce and bread.

>eating a flyover meme

I like it on fries, hash browns, burgers made with lean beef, and the very rare corndog. I might only eat one corndog a year, but dammit I'm going to eat it with ketchup.

Not really that obscure a reference, user.

today I have eaten a sandwich

bread
ketchup
mayo
some dill
bread

I wanted to add some black pepper, but have not found it, sandwich was pretty tasty, but many things are tasty when you are hungry

TOMATO KETCHUP
Take six pounds of tomatos sprinkle them with salt let them remain for a day or two then boil them until the skins will separate easily pour them into a colander or coarse sieve and press them through leaving the skins behind put into the liquor a handful of shalots a pint of chili vinegar and half a pint of wine pepper cloves ginger and allspice boil them together until a third part has wasted then bottle it closing the bottles very securely It must be shaken before it is used

Ketchup makes scrambled eggs look like bloody brains, and taste good.

my parents banned ketchup from the house so I never acquired the taste. I thank them for it.

mix it with water, boil it on low heat and add 1 teaspoon paprika and onion powder and two teaspoons curry powder and you have chillup sauce for currywurst

only because they repeat it 500 fucking times in 1 commercial, and the commercial would play 100 times a day.

You use it on steak. Well done steak, like all patricians eat.

It is outside the US

not really, I got it too.

Beat me to it!

I use it to dip my grilled cheese sandwich in.
