Gourmet Ketchup is like flavored coffee. Tastes much worse than it sounds.

If you want to rant about ketchup, rant about the stupid flip-top squeeze lid now on Heinz bottles that has a plastic flange in the hole. It takes three hands to squeeze hard enough for it to come out and then you get a quarter cup gush.

p.s.- since rants, by their very nature are emotional, irrational outbursts, it’s funny reading all these posts containing
how dare you,
who the hell are you to say something different than I say,
mayo sucks worse – well that might be true – long live Miracle Whip – LOL

@Vianna

Who the hell do I think I am to judge or tell people what they should or should not do with their food?

I’m Eick, So Good food blogger, that’s who. This blog would be pretty boring if I didn’t voice strong opinions and call out the insanity of certain food eating habits.

Um..it’s unchanging BECAUSE it’s that good. It’s a classic, idiot. Anyways ketchup has lycopene and is actually good for you. Also, who the hell do you think you are to judge or tell people what they should do or not do with their food? What a stupid blog post. Get over yourself.

Ketchup is good stuff, but I don’t use it very often. Still your rant is just plain silly. There is no need for ketchup to evolve. It is what it is.

The great thing about it, is you can “evolve” ketchup on your own, and to your tastes. Texas Pete and ketchup? On a burger? Oh yea, man, it kicks ass. On a fried chicken sandwich? Even better. Mayo can’t even touch it with a ten foot poll.

To be exact…

If anything needed such a rant, as the one you gave here, it’s those who put that nasty white goo on everything under the sun, and those who believe that every sandwich creation on the planet needs to have some sort of mayo based “secrete sauce”. Mayo sucks balls. It was created to hide the taste of bad meat in the days before refrigeration.

It’s really bad for your health, and tastes like ass.

Anyone who likes Mayo, yet rips on those who like Ketchup, has no room to talk. It is by far the worst condiment ever, yet you rag on ketchup lovers?! Give me a break!

Mayo lovers are far worse than ketchup lovers. I see them drown everything they eat in the crap. Salad, burgers, subs, cheesesteaks(WTF?!! SIN!), ground beef, hot dogs, french fries, fish, veggies. If anyone deserves the rant you gave here, it is these nasty sorts. Not ketchup lovers.

Better yet, rant on those who demand putting condiments on your food, and not letting you do it yourself. Nothing should come with condiments placed on them ahead of time. Even “special sauce”. It should be up to you and I as to how much we want.

Heinz Ketchup rules! If I am feeling fancy I might use Jim Beam Ketchup, but if I am having fries it’s got to be Heinz.

No diversity? Haven’t you heard, Heinz makes green and blue ketchup now, as well as red!
They probably taste the same of course.
I wouldn’t know, I hate ketchup, or “tomato sauce” as it’s called here.

Here’s a quick homemade “catsup” we use for hamburgers. Beats Heinz’s heiney and Hunts hunts for safety.

@ Big Stapes.

Hurried attempt to meet a deadline? This was one of the inaugural blog posts when the blog first launched so I was under no rush…plus, as the owner and operator of this blog, I ain’t got no deadlines.

As for the suggestion I use ketchup as a base ingredient and create different flavors – well, that’s kind of the crux of my argument. It should not be ME that has to mix and create new ketchup flavors, food companies should be doing it already – just like the food companies for virtually every single other condiment on the market have done.

If you really are dedicated to this more than just to fill a page, perhaps you should use ketchup as a base ingredient and create your own versions of different flavors,.

Eick, seriously? Was this just a hurried attempt to meet a deadline? “Fie, all yea ketchup lovers, for enjoying a product that’s been enjoyed for a long time now.” Perhaps next you should do a social commentary on Pepsi, and why its derivatives are not enjoyed as much as the original?

In India, there are different ketchup flavors like hot and sweet, mint flavored etc. Some are ok, some are gross. More here http://www.nestle.in/PreparedDishes_CookingAids.aspx?OB=3&id=33
