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."

Hunts catsup! Thats the stuff!

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

Tartar sauce with fries is good, too.

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.

Oh, piffle! 🤨

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?

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

Oh wow, I was with you on the catsup (ketchup) only because I don’t like catsup, lol, but it’s really crossing the line coming after my pizza with ranch dressing. Now you’ve lost me! 😉😂

2 questions:

***In that case, what do you have against kids under 10?

***Is it appropriate to "slather" ketchup on "halal"?

Let's go to dinner, I'll buy you a rack of ribs. Or breakfast and I'll buy you some bacon.

That was unnecessary. The same could be said about fish on Fridays or foregoing some food during Lent, or mixing meat and dairy. The OP is entitled to have food preferences, and some dietary prohibitions are more deeply seeded. Would anyone expect our Hindu friends to chow down on filet mignon?

Talk about a first world problem. There are millions of people in this world who don’t know where their next meal is coming from and you’re complaining publicly about ketchup? Just be thankful for what you have and shut up.
