Ketchup!
 
No one over the age of 10 should be using ketchup!

See so many adults slathering it on everything before they even taste their food. Why put on a sugary/vinergar glop on perfectly good tasting food.

Is this centric to just ketchup or all condiments including salt and pepper?

There are 100's of clubs and tons of activities in The Villages...but I suppose concerning yourself with what others put on their food is a great use of your retirement time as well! :blahblahblah:

I think it would be more accurate to say we shouldn't be eating foods that need ketchup.

No one over the age of 10 should tell anyone how to season their food.

Must be a slow day around the Ponderosa.

Actually have zero need to watch others or make strangers feel uncomfortable staring at them.

Then again our dining partners always have stimulating conversation worth giving full attention

Taltarzac725 03-10-2024 05:17 PM

Love ketchup!

manaboutown 03-10-2024 05:52 PM

I especially enjoy Heinz ketchup on french fries having first tried putting ketchup on them while in high school. I enjoy it on hamburgers and an occasional hot dog but never put it or A1 sauce on a steak which many people do.

From Charlie Munger:

CM: "It was very interesting. It's something about the flavor of ketchup on a goddamn fried potato that people aren't really willing to change brands over. They want Heinz. And so we could raise the price of Heinz. Pretty much any, but you try to raise the Kraft cheese and everything goes into rebellion, including the final customer, the housewife. They don't care that much about whether the cheese is Kraft or not."

Why is it any of your business what anyone else decides to eat? Why don't you worry about yourself instead of berating total strangers who have done nothing to you?

Gpsma 03-10-2024 06:09 PM

Im not telling people what to eat…its just pukey disgusting watching grown adults using a condiment made for children.

And lets not talk about those that dip pizza in ranch dressing.

Actually your very first sentence is telling adults what they should not eat.
Frankly, I can't believe anyone would actually go to dinner with you and suffer thru that attitude.

Stu from NYC 03-10-2024 06:52 PM

Fries without ketchup? How barbaric.

Next thing we will be told no ketchup on burgers. Where is this world coming too?

I agree. Watching others eat while sitting in a restaurant is quite disgusting and very creepy.

It disgusts me to see someone put sugar on grapefruit. :icon_twisted: But, I don’t have to rant tell the world.

A good grapefruit does not need sugar but often a bit of sugar does make it better.

You have been told not to talk about dipping pizza so please stop that.

How miserable must one’s life be to post about what other people eat?

Is it the sugar or vinegar that bothers you? What would you recommend as a substitute for cocktail sauce for shrimp?

I take ALL of my advice from people who say "Nobody should...." or " I don't see why everyone doesn't..." :rolleyes:

Why the need to control others?

I use it on meats, eggs, pasta, potatoes, rice, etc.
I'm 5'9" and weigh 131 lbs. My cholesterol and lipids are lower than normal as is my blood pressure.
How does that compare to your average Villager?
