For someone who keeps a backup bottle of ketchup in the back of the fridge so she never has to consume room temp ketchup at home, this is tough. You can’t eat a hot dog, corn dog or brat w/o mustard. You can’t make baked beans w/o it. But, you can dip your fries in mayo, mustard, tartar sauce (yummm). I guess I’ll go with giving up ketchup. Oh sweet Jesus. I can’t believe I just put that out there in the universe.

If mustard were to be banned forever, it wouldn’t be soon enough. I hate mustard, HATE IT, and I can detect even the tiniest bit of it. Trouble is, it’s EVERYWHERE – on sandwiches, in marinades, in salad dressings, one time even lurking beneath the surface of breaded chicken. I’m sick and tired of mustard sucker-punching me in the tastebuds and would be thrilled if it would just go away for good!

NO. NO. This has to be wrong. How is this even a tough decision?

Ketchup with a burger is fine. Maybe eggs or hash browns as well.

Mustard with hot dogs. Sandwiches. Meat and cheese platters. Fries. The list goes on.

I can’t believe people will choose one piece of food (burger, fries) and take that over the versatility mustard provides on a variety of foodstuffs.

Simply astonishing.

They are both versatile and tasty. They have cross-over territory, yet also their own distinct niches in cooking and topping of foods.

That said, if I think of my favorite foods for Ketchup, versus my favorite foods for Mustard….Ketchup and Burgers is just yummier than Mustard and Hot Dogs.

This is a toughie! I’d have to keep the mustard. Ketchup is easier to substitute/replace. You could use something else tomato-y like salsa. But mustard is kind of its own thing.

I probably use mustard more, but I’m voting for ketchup because I can’t live without french fries, and I can’t eat french fries without ketchup. Hence, ketchup wins

Mustard, hands down.

With all the different flavored mustards you would be missing out on so much.

Ketchup goes on hotdogs and hamburgers, not sandwichs like it’s counterpart.

Mustard is used in many different recipes, where I don’t think I’ve ever used ketchup in cooking.

Tomatoes are great on burgers, no ketchup necessary.

Are these enough reasons?
