I’m a chaotic neutral myself. It almost, but not quite appalls my wife.
Fuck, this is my kid…
… That’s what he said. Chaotic evil. Aren’t all of them near that age?
Lol pretty much
Warms my heart to see there are still places with old arcade games hanging around. Do kids even want to play stuff like centipede or is it there for the parents??
About always kids. My kids played the hell out of them when they were young there.
Ketchup is a disgusting condiment loaded with sugar.
There are so many no sugar added ketchups. They’re not hard to find.
Also, how do you feel about BBQ sauce? They’re also loaded with sugar, moreso than ketchup.
Yes my favorite ketchups only have the original sugars from the vegetables used. And usually have some richer spices and more prominent vinegar.
BBQ basically is ketchup with brown sugar and other smokey flavor added in
The only time I really use bbq sauce is as a marinade before something goes on the grill, never really as a dip. The only time I use ketchup is as an ingredient/thin glaze in/on meatloaf before the oven.
I tend to avoid sweet stuff in general-- I don’t dislike it but I’m not often in the mood for it. I eat ketchup sometimes but I more often put sriracha on fries. BBQ sauce that isn’t disgustingly sweet is difficult to find, and I’d love more ketchup options to be widely available. There’s a reason heinz had 57 varieties dammit!
Everyone has their personal preferences, that’s totally fine.
I just think saying ketchup is disgusting because it commonly has some sugar in it is a ridiculous statement that ignores a ton of cuisine. Even ketchup that has sugar in it doesn’t have nearly as much as a lot of other sweet and savory foods so I don’t understand why it gets singled out so much.
There are so many no sugar added ketchups. They’re not hard to find.
Unfortunately those usually contain artificial sweeteners and still taste way too sweet.
I finally managed to find one local (to the Netherlands) brand that sells ketchup without added sugars or sweeteners. The brand was actually started by a person with diabetes who wanted to cut out all sugar from her diet.
It’s so much better than the standard Heinz stuff. Much more savory, you can actually taste the tomatoes.
It of course depends on the market. In California they are not hard to find.
Ketchup is fine for small children and the infirm. But that’s it. Everyone else should be using mustard, (preferably with horseradish in it), or some other stronger flavored condiment. Be the adult you are!
Nothing more adult than worrying your choice of condiment might be perceived as immature
Do I need to add “slashies” to a joke here also? The point of the silly statement was to show the, to use your word, fun immaturity of the this post. And yes, it can be fun to argue about silly things even as an adult - see any sports discussion or conversation about the weather, (slashies). But evidently, there are a lot of people here who don’t understand the humor of such a broad and silly statement without a road map.
There is exactly zero indication that your statement is intended as humorous instead of pretentious. “Slashies” as you call them are a thing because tone and nuance don’t convey well over text.
The opening line of “The very young and the infirm” is very much over the top and the words chosen are not common use words in daily speech. Understanding the nuance and tone of the written word would seem to be lacking. People used to be able to do that as a general rule.
It explains a lot about modern education and the general tone of discourse in modern societies.
I also despise when people think it’s necessary to type ”/s" at the end of comments, but your original comment does seem more like it’s being sincere than obviously sarcasm!
What a silly statement.
That was the point…
Mustard is gross af too, though. Horseradish is biological warfare, not edible food, and I will die on that hill.
I’m not a condiment person, even adding salt and pepper “to taste” is something I very very rarely do. Condiments are a waste of cooking skill and good ingredients. If I use anything it’s probably hot sauce or like sweet chilli or something actually transformative, or the food is barely edible without it (which I try to avoid). Everything else can go straight in the trash.
I like the actual taste of my food, no need to cover it up and make it taste exactly the same way every single time via condiments. Be an adult and experience subtle flavor variety.
Ofc maybe you need condiments because you are a shit cook. That’s ok too, but it doesn’t make you more adult than someone who prefers things differently.
I think every Michelin Star chef and restaurant on the planet would disagree with you. But hey, you do you.
You make a good point.
Dang. I run prefer mustard, mayo, and ketchup, in that order, with my fries.
Horseradish on fries? Never tried it. With Prime rib? Sure.
There is little wrong with ketchup, (I am not a big fan of all the sweeteners they put in it these days), but the same old same old gets boring after awhile. A good spicy German mustard is a great choice for your fries. Open your mind and palate to new things.
To butcher a quote from Andrew Zimmern, “Always try the eyeballs, you never know how good they might taste”
TIL there is sugar in ketchup
No, there’s a bit of ketchup in the sugar
How could you not know that ketchup is sugar?!?
I was half jokingly wondering why the top comment was a truism
I’m not sure if the sugar part is meant to be evidence on how disgusting it is but I like sugar
Sugar bad
Right. It’s a bit like saying chocolate bad. I’m sure it’s not some health food, but in moderation seems fine.
Where’s the one where you suck ketchup straight from the packet and then toss some fries in your mouth?
Sex offender registry?
I thought you were gonna say… spit on the fries.
Where’s mixed with mayo on the chart?
That might also qualify as lawful evil, but it does really taste good
True neutral.
Ayee a no ketchup brother
What a sad life sans ketchup…
I can do all sorts of condiments, but ketchup is just eugh. Just give me sweet chili and we’re good.
Where is “putting some fries in your mouth, then squeezing ketchup into your mouth”?
I think that’s the hidden “Chaotic Stupid” option.
Pretty sure you’re supposed to put the ketchup first, then add the fries.
Or a bowl of ketchup and a spoon with fries on top as garnish.
True Neutral gang
Where are the Aussie tomato sauce squeeze packs in this situation?
It’s an additional 1$ coin to include it
Usually it’s about 20c, 30-40c to account for inflation
Lawful evil if you ask me
You see the squeeze packs are great because its not pain like the tear open packs. You squeeze the two half’s together and sauce comes out the perforation in the centre. It’s great if you want to get a bit of sauce with every bite.
You sauce, then you bite. And repeat.
The only thing evil about it is the plastic (and the blasphemous and unaustralaian additional cost some takeaway joints tend to charge for the privilege of having them… Grrr condiments should be free no matter what.)
…see?
Should we tell them about HSPs?
Ah yes, otherwise known as the Afterbirth, or the AB for short
A mountain of hot chips, kebab/yiros meat and a basically drowned in various sauces.
Chilli sauce, BBQ sauce, and garlic sauce mmmm
Anger those weirdly elitist hotdog council people by putting it on a hotdog you’re having the fries with
That’s funny because I’m a CG on other charts as well.
Also hilarious you couldn’t find a picture of ketchup soaked fries but you could find a picture of ketchup in a hand?
Plus man… you can generate the image with AI now days… That’s said my attempts didn’t quite get me the level of soakness or covering I wanted. This is probably the best I think, if you imagine there are fries under the ketchup and not a ketchup bowl with fries placed on the borders:
A new challenger appears
Ketchup is disgusting and doesn’t belong on fries.
Mayo is the way.
TN unless the fries are shitty, in which case LN.
No ketchup. Only chili.
The eldritch entities beyond time and space: Fries with ice cream
Korea’s kfc be likeI went to a hipster restaurant about a decade ago where they served fries with a shot glass full of chocolate milk shake on the side for dunking. It was really tasty ngl
This has been a thing for decades, via Wendy’s Frosty.
It’s also about as divisive as pineapple on pizza.
Sounds like you have never used a frosty as dunker for fries. Pro move is getting McDonald’s fries with a Wendy’s frosty
Wendy’s fries and a chocolate frosty
