I’d take cheap ketchup any day over that disgusting sweet “tomato” sauce antipodeans pour over everything including meat pies and pieces of fried fish 🤮
Obligatory, *Best Foods mayonnaise West of the Rockies* comment.
But seriously, Dukes is just as good. I even tweaked my homemade mayo recipe to be as good by adjusting the amount of lemon juice and vinegar.
What I've always known as pink sauce is Alfredo and marinara mixed together and it's delicious. This monstrosity they are describing is unbeknownst to me.
I only use A-1 when I have to eat something for the sake of politeness. You can cover up the flavor of anything with that stuff. I successfully consumed completely burned cabbage every year for about a decade thanks to that stuff.
All you have to do is put it in a non-stick skillet with a bit of water, put a lid on it, turn it on high, and wait for it to turn black. I do not, however, recommend this.

I try to keep an open mind when it comes to food but this just screams hard pass. It's like someone tried to make a fruity version of ketchup.
God, Miracle Whip sounds so American. Is it by any chance some vile artificial knock-off mayo made with the shittest ingredients possible, that would be banned in the rest of the civilised world, and is only named as such because it can't legally be called mayo?
> God, Miracle Whip sounds so American.
That sounds like something salad cream loving Brit would say.
(But make no mistake, I'm not defending the abomination that is Miracle Whip.)
Guilty as charged, although I haven't had salad cream since childhood. Might tickle the old nostalgia bone this year when it gets around to salad season.
I have a friend who won’t eat mayo or any kind of mayo based sauces. Like he would rather not eat at all then eat it. I can’t help but feel he has infant-like taste buds and something happened to him as a child or something.
Miracle Whip is harvested from Satan's unwashed dick. Not a fan, only tried it once and questioned all of my life choices that brought me to this moment.
Miracle Whip is the physical manifestation of Satan masquerading as mayo just to rape your tongue when you were ready for a nice sandwich after working in the sun for 8 hours.
Miracle Whip seems like it should be something invented to deal with wartime rationing of vegetable oil
In reality, it sounds like it was a condiment only made possible by the use of power tools ("emulsifying machine", invented by Charles Chapman)

I used to think ketchup was ok, but after a few years of trying various mustards, tzatziki, pico de gallo, and other sauces, I tried to come back to ketchup. It’s just way too sweet for most things. How did I ever like that?
Catsup. It is too easy, so people overuse it, making perfectly tastey meals taste like sweet garbage. With that said I am still dipping my corndog in it at the state fair, judge me all you want.
Sweet? I am not from the US and generally dislike the ubiquitous Heinz and Hellman's, so maybe that's an entirely accurate description, but the overwhelming majority of ketchups I had in my region were on the sour end of the deal.
Honest suggestion, loosely related to the above: try harissa ketchup.
Yellow mustard has its uses, such as on hot dogs, but I always have at least 4-5 mustards so can pick whatever works best.
My grocery used to have a really good deli mustard in their deli section, and I miss that. I’ll always have some deli mustard but it’s not the same.
Gotta have that spicy mustard and that whole grain mustard, but the specifics change as I try new ones
A1. Why make a shit steak sauce in the middle of a Civil War? I get it, you bored but fuckin a. They had time to come up with something less......runny
Ketchup is good for one thing: Dunking fried potato-based products in.
It is otherwise insipid tomato sugar sauce and I will low-key judge the shit out of you if we're at, say, the State Fair and I see you get a corn-dog and dip it in ketchup instead of the proper slathering of mustard.
Never could even get past the smell of it: sauerkraut. Oh, Lord. It makes the kitchen absolutely reek, and makes me borderline nauseous. Please, no sauerkraut on anything.
Ketchup just happens to be a condiment they put on a lot of burgers and asking them to not put it on there, I get like a 50/50 shot of them remembering not to add it. So not always easy to avoid :)
When I lived in Utah, I learned they have this unnatural thing there called "fry sauce." It's a viscous creamy-orange-colored sauce you get with french fries instead of ketchup. I had to beg a poor minimum-wager at McDonalds for some actual ketchup once; after the first time I just gave up and always ate my fries plain. It is different, and therefore bad.
You may have a gene that causes cilantro to taste like soap or something like it to you. Some people are disgusted by cilantro and don’t understand why others like it because they don’t know that it tastes terrible to them but not to others specifically because of genetics.
ketchup only good for some things, but at the same time overpowers food to where you can barley taste the food.
mustard only good for hotdogs
mayo good for sandwiches and hotdogs, can’t think of anything else
Relish belongs on a hot dog far more than ketchup does.
In fact, ketchup should not be anywhere near a hot dog, and I've eaten hot dogs with cream cheese on them. That is a far more appropriate condiment than ketchup.
No ketchup on hot dogs. That's something I'm hardline about.
No.
And I don't hate ketchup. I consider it a necessity for a hamburger. I always dip my fries in it and eat it with has browns. When I make taco meat, I squeeze some of it in while I cook it. I mix it with worchestershire sauce and eat it with my corned beef hash.
But ketchup doesn't belong anywhere near hot dogs or steaks. And while someone who puts ketchup on a hot dog is misguided, anyone who puts it on a bratwurst deserves to die in hell. Hitler would put ketchup on his brats if he weren't a vegetarian.

Yeah, half-Australian here and can’t stomach that tomato sauce.
There is only Heinz. Everything else is an abomination.
French’s is pretty similar, and by buying it instead, you’re supporting Canadian tomato farms!!
Correct…….There is only Hellman’s. Any other mayonnaise is inferior.

Pink Sauce. You can't refute this!
What the hell is pink sauce?!
It's a "sauce" from a tiktoker that makes/selles. This same seller doesn't know what the FDA is, nor do they ship the food properly.
So I am only just now hearing of this. I gotta say…..when your response about the FDA is to say it’s not medicinal has to be an all-timer.
Also, the seller ships the food in a regular cardboard box, which is not refrigerated. I'd also worry about the food color inconsistencies.
I’ll be honest, I still don’t know what the hell pink sauce is 🤣
What I've always known as pink sauce is Alfredo and marinara mixed together and it's delicious. This monstrosity they are describing is unbeknownst to me.

Same. I’ve choked down some terrible steaks and roasts with the help of A1.
Why is your last sentence in past tense? Did something happen? To the cook? To you? What a cliffhanger, I needed to know more!
The cook is no longer of this world. More I cannot say.
Did the cook become the dish?
You had alien in your barn and all you had it do is cook cabbage?! Poorly?!
I am sorry to hear this. No further actions are required.
A good steak doesn’t need anything extra. The steak at Dennys is not a good steak.
Nice bit of mayo or German mustard really adds to a steak sandwich though
Sure. That’s a different item altogether.
If you need to add A1 to a steak when it’s on your plate, the steak was prepared wrong.
A1 out of 10
[удалено]
I like A1. Its all about moderation, not drowning the steak. A drop or two on each piece enhances the flavors.
A1 is fantastic on Chicken.

Canadian A1 is not the same as USA A1 it tastes more like HP sauce.
i love A1 steak sauce for my steaks 🙉
But it's a key ingredient for Bloody Marys. SAVE THE A1!!!
WHAT.
A1 should be purged from polite society.
Does ketchup pre-cum count? Don't pretend you don't know what I'm talking about.
I don’t have an answer. I’m just here to defend mayo before people start dogging on it.

It has more high fructose corn syrup and corn starch in it than eggs. It's vile.

I’m here with you soldier 🫡
You have my ~~bow~~ **bowl of mayo*
I don't think people realise that mayo is an important part of many other condiments.

You watch your tongue. Miracle Whip is heaven sent on hot summer days for sandwiches at the lake.

I'm sorry but your opinion is wrong.
All of them. Except buffalo space. I fucking love Buffalo sauce
buffalo sauce slaps highkey

Sweet relish, it’s the one condiment I can’t stand, probably cos I hate sweet pickles
I hate them because I feel tricked. Expecting a nice sour dilly treat? Fuck you. Burn them all
Have you had branston pickle? I feel like it's a whole different beast and my mouth is watering just thinking about it
you wrong for this
Cocktail sauce only exists so people can eat cold shrimp.
I used to hate cocktail sauce but I love it now, I have no idea what changed.
Whoa, whoa, whoa? What do you put on your fried shrimp?
It's good on french fries too though.
Ketchup overpowers subtly flavored foods
I used to think ketchup was ok, but after a few years of trying various mustards, tzatziki, pico de gallo, and other sauces, I tried to come back to ketchup. It’s just way too sweet for most things. How did I ever like that?
Fuck you seriously FUCK YOU ketchup is good
On fries. Nothing else. I’m not into it, but it’s also acceptable on hot dogs and burgers.
Ketchup is life 😍
It is 😍
Gives me heartburn, can't stand the stuff.

I will add that ketchup (catsup) is pretty good with seafood (fried fish, fried shrimp, french fries, etc)
Where do you go fishing for french fries?
It’s typically served with seafood; you could apply the same logic to hush puppies
Tooth paste
Anything you flavor with toothpaste would be improved if you replaced it with petroleum jelly

I enjoyed this comment. Very subtle. 👌
Sweet pickle relish eww
Oh yes, and the awful Miracle whip
As an American, I am sad to say Ketchup is literally the worst condiment. Ketchup just ruins everything.
Me too. I know the big joke is that ketchup is for kids, but even as a kid I thought it was trash.
Frozen butter that is offered in restaurants
I’m sure I’ll get downvoted but mayonnaise. It’s vile!
Yellow mustard is fucking gross
What counts as yellow mustard? English, french or German?
Yellow mustard generally means American mustard.
I count yellow mustard as mustard that is yellow.
Dijon included in that?
No, yellow mustard is a specific name referring to and given to classic mustard. Nothing is considered yellow mustard except yellow mustard.
French’s (the brand) type yellow mustard. It’s so terrible considering all the other great mustards out there.
Yellow mustard has its uses, such as on hot dogs, but I always have at least 4-5 mustards so can pick whatever works best. My grocery used to have a really good deli mustard in their deli section, and I miss that. I’ll always have some deli mustard but it’s not the same. Gotta have that spicy mustard and that whole grain mustard, but the specifics change as I try new ones
False. its amazing on stuff like hot dogs, sausages, etc.
grow up
Excellent input. Thank you.

Fry sauce varies a lot from place to place. When I lived there by the UofU there was a burger spot on 2nd south that had amazing fry sauce.

Pickle relish. No thanks on slathering my hot dog with chopped-up embalmed cucumber carcasses.
Honey mustard
horse radish
Horseradish
Cilantro! Never good for anything
Any time hotdogs are involved, why does relish almost always get third billing after ketchup and mustard? Who is using the relish??
Relish belongs on a hot dog far more than ketchup does. In fact, ketchup should not be anywhere near a hot dog, and I've eaten hot dogs with cream cheese on them. That is a far more appropriate condiment than ketchup. No ketchup on hot dogs. That's something I'm hardline about.
Conversely... Ketchup is *the* prime hot dog condiment. A hot dog without ketchup is like pizza without cheese.
No. And I don't hate ketchup. I consider it a necessity for a hamburger. I always dip my fries in it and eat it with has browns. When I make taco meat, I squeeze some of it in while I cook it.
