i’m convinced this ketchup and hot dog hate is some ironic thing USians started dreaming up five years ago. what else can you put ketchup on but a hot dog? it’s like one of two possible uses for ketchup, besides dipping fries in.

nooo don’t put the hot dog condiment on a hot dog that’s weeeeird

After looking into it a bit, apparently people in Chicago think ketchup is a child’s hotdog condiment?

Bro hotdogs are a child’s food the fuck are you saying. “Oh god barbecue sauce is such a childish condiment to have with your dinosaur chicken nuggets”

I remember seeing discourse around Mustard being deemed the official hot dog condiment.

I believe that could play into this. That said, as a ketchup hater I support their motion.

In my mind the standard hotdog isn’t just one or the other, it’s both.

Like if you asked me out of nowhere to draw a hotdog it would include both ketchup and mustard

And I don’t say this as a defense, I hate ketchup and I’m not really a fan of hotdogs in general

I recall seeing a lot of toys in my childhood with both condiments also.

I also recall being asked “ketchup? Mustard?” when getting a hot dog at barbeques.

I agree it’s the standard, but I’ll always playfully respond “are you sure you dont want Sriracha?” when asked for ketchup

I hate mustard and most of the things they put on hot dogs. Give me chili, cheese, and ketchup in any combination, onions sure but only if they’re part of the chili.

It’s weird if you’re a Chicagoan

Hot dogs traditionally should be served with like onions, relish, tomato slices, pickles, etc. They are depression-era food where you take the cheapest processed meat sausage and then pile it with cheap garden vegetables and canned goods.

Eating the hotdog with only ketchup is just covering your cheap processed meat tube with high fructose corn syrup.

It’s a conspiracy to make something as normal as jam on toast seem unnatural

jam on toast? preposterous. in cincinnati, where toast was invented by Coriolanus Toast III, it is customary to have navy beans, hubbard squash, and chili oil on toast. in fact, if you go to the community theater and get jam on your toast, the MC will squirt you with lemon juice and paddle your bottom with a bible.

Jam is a dessert food. It doesn’t belong as a central part of a meal.

Yet Americans will eat it with sweetened peanut butter and sweetened bread and call the resulting creation, whether in its squishiness or its sogginess, a full meal.

The “ketchup on hot dogs is wrong” thing seems mostly unique to USAmericans

It makes no sense to me because I’m an older U.S. millennial and growing up you put three things on yer dog: ketchup, mustard, and relish.

I don’t like ketchup and bread together unless there’s another condiment there. Just mustard dog, hell fucking yes, mustard rules, plain relish dog, okay, cool thats fine. Plain ketchipdog I won’t even eat. It needs a friend.

it’s a Chicago and New York thing pretty exclusively to think ketchup on a hotdog is weird. but lots of media comes from those places, so it gets conflated with “all the sophisticated people on the continent feel this way”.

Imagine believing anything about a hot dog could be considered sophisticated. Like eat the left over meat chunks we crammed into a meat tube and dump like 15 dollars of condiments and vegetable toppings, but don’t use the wrong one or else it’ll become gauche!

I eat my vegan dogs sans ketchup. I would never do that! Back in high school, my 10th grade history teacher said that ketchup on hot dogs is an abomination, and I totally agree with him.

Mustard, relish, onions? Absolutely. Maybe a simple vegan chili and cashew cheese if I’m feeling to load it up too.

All of these are actually good and mostly rely on combining sweet and savory flavors to different degrees. Three of them are also foods that are associated with being poor and déclassé.

Personally never really been into ranch on pizza or in general, but I begrudgingly respect that it works.

The one I’ll really stick up for is apple (or other sweet fruit filling) pie with cheese. It’s really tight to have something like a swiss to cut the sweetness and round out the flavor profile there.

Preach. I’m weirded out by how judgy people get about food, especially mixing flavor profiles. Pineapple on pizza is another big one.

Another thing that is really good is chocolate and cheese, especially with a nice fruit. One time I got served a “wedding proposal” which was dark chocolate, apricot, and monchago.

I love cheese and chocolate. I crave a white cheese like mozzarella or brie whenever I have some dark chocolate.

I feel like the apple pie one has got to be one of those engagement bait things.
I’ve heard of the other three, but surely that’s not actually a thing.

I’ve never had it with the pie, but go ahead and try some nice sharp cheddar with some slices of apple. When I first tried it I couldn’t believe it actually tasted quite nice.
