Underrated

I like ketchup. I don't drown stuff in it.
I find ketchup on a hot dog revolting.
But I like it.

Recently, a friend, who is a bit of a snob and a little snooty, made a comment to me about a local eatery. His comment included the phrase '... if you like ketchup.'
So I said, 'I do like ketchup.'

Ketchup is a good condiment for certain food items, and I refuse to be ashamed to say I like ketchup.
I like it on french fries. I like it on a hamburger.
I am not ashamed.

 

Also, club soda/seltzer

 

I can literally drink seltzer by the gallon. I fear for the state of my kidneys, but I love it.

 

Actually,the ill effects of carbonated water on kidneys, teeth and bones are myths, like the yeti, or his North American cousin, the sasquatch.

Drink on, my seltzer-loving friend, drink on.

 

I am determined to find a palet of the old original New York Seltzer.

 

I don't like those flavored seltzers. I just like a seltzer/club soda.
Always keep it around the house and always order it at restaurants.

There was a brief time in the late 1970s in NJ, when we were getting seltzer delivered to the house in the old-fashioned bottles.
I thought i was the coolest thing in the world. I think it was a nostalgia thing for my parents.
Didn't last long, though. I don't recall if they decided it was just a silly expense or if the company went out of business.
Probably the latter.

 

Nice. Never heard the rumors, but always assumed the accumulation of CO2 had to go somewhere. Glad I'm home free.

The unflavored seltzer is the way to go. My dad got me hooked on it when I was a teenager and I grimace everytime I have to settle for lemon, lime or berry flavors.

 

Fuckin A. Owe my life to the Coasties.

 

To cross thread...

Best Bowie song...

 

Seltzer and club soda not being the same thing is underrated.

 

Breakfast sausage

 

Ditto. Any of those joints you hear about that get offended if you want mustard or ketchup on a dog or hamburger can get fucked. I'll put what I want on my non-sandwich, thanks. And not that I would, but if I went to the best steak joint in the world and want ketchup on my steak, that's my fucking business. Don't judge me
