Whoa! I just noticed a thread in which Mazra claimed he eats Pasta with Ketchup.

Maz you eat pasta with Ketchup on it?

If the Danish Ketchup is anything like German Ketchup then it is not too bad, but American Ketchup is terrible and should never be put on Pasta.

I went through a phase as a kid of having A-1 steak sauce on everything. Worked well with pasts.

Ooooo! A-1 sauce. I can see it with Tortellini.

There's a Philippine sauce that they use for their "spaghetti"... totally tastes like ketchup, but sweeter. I hate it, but the majority of the family enjoys it. It doesn't sound weird though.

Pasta + bacon + eggs + ketchup = Sunday morning

As for ketchup, we've got two kinds of ketchup here.

One is a "sandwich" ketchup, used primarily in our hotdogs and hotdog stand burgers (they're like regular burgers, except there are no vegetables in them - not counting the pickled cucumber salad). This ketchup mostly consists of apples and potatoes...

The other kind is this type. We use this one for pasta and french fries and all that.

German ketchup always reminds me of the curry ketchup. It's the best ketchup for fries, period. Used to eat it a lot when I was skiing in Austria. They'd carve up half a cow for me and bring in a bucket of fries with curry ketchup on the side.

Thank god for high metabolism, right?

By the way, where did I mention ketchup and pasta? I know I did, because I remember writing it, but I don't remember where... Smiley: um

A friend of mine puts mayonnaise on her pasta. Smiley: eek So ketchup seems pretty okay.
I prefer pesto though. Or a real sauce but most of the time I'm too lazy for that.

Technically, ketchup is a sauce. It's a cold tomato sauce.

I believe some of you English people even call ketchup 'tomato sauce' or 'red sauce'.

I take it you're that one American who doesn't like ketchup, lolgaxe? Smiley: tongue

It actually adds a lot of flavor to the dish if used properly. Chopped steak with a bit of ketchup and a fried egg on top is amazing.

The only steak I'll usually eat with ketchup is that. The cubed beef steak (pretty much looks like a hamburger as it's ground and molded together to form a steak-like patty). I think the only near "weird" thing I usually do with ketchup is mixing it with mayonnaise and eating french fries. But apparently, a lot of people do that too.

I'm glad an admin agreed with my reporting. Totally did not want to have to make good on my "Taco Bell on a work night" promise. Smiley: laugh

dated a girl that dipped her fries in mayo, she used more mayo through an order of fries than I did ketchup... was a little gross to me ;) but then again when I saw her use of ketchup... liberally applied to her beef (they called it stew but it was so liquid I call it soup) right into her bowl to colour the broth up... yeah. Funny what you remember about folks years later.

Too much ketchup is nasty. I've seen people try to drown their fries in a ketchup bath. You can't even taste the fries when there's that much ketchup on them.

I use ketchup like I use salt and pepper.

Blech yeah drowning anything... ketchup is a condiment, give me a dish to dip in rather than covering entire fries in ketchup without anywhere to grab it (not always great eating finger foods) I get my mayo on the side for club sandwiches too because if they put it ON the sandwich it's on so thick it's all you can taste.

The main reason that people like Ketchup is the insane amount of sugar in it. Children are big fans because it gives a huge energy boost. Adults like it because it stimulates their brains in a pleasurable way.

Ketchup is fine for a flavor enhancer, but many folks use it to an extreme to obtain a quick high off of the sugar. I think it is terrible for children as it promotes over eating.

My Grandmother puts ketchup on kimchi, thankfully she didn't pass on that habit.

Mayo + fries taste great. Too much mayo tends to get disgusting really fast though.

Pickled cucumber salad? On a burger? Though, I admit it looked good in the pic.

A-yup, that's American ketchup. Bluh.

Ketchup is not tomato sauce, it is an abomination, and it is disgusting.

Mayonnaise is good to keep sandwiches moist, that's about it.

Now mustard, mustard is where it's at! That's some flavor right there.

And ketchup on pasta, wtf is wrong with you? You just ruined perfectly good pasta. Why don't you put real tomato sauce on it? Or even better, alfredo and pesto. That's the good stuff there.

If that's the case, you seem to be the type that would like the mustard covered pretzels?

I've never even heard of mustard covered pretzels. O.o The only thing that belongs on pretzels is chocolate.
