Ketchup is history...
 

To me at least.
Growing up, my parents always only had ketchup and mustard for burgers and hot dogs. My father even used it on his eggs in the morning.

Quite a few years ago, I quit using it in favor of Mayo or other toppings. (always with fresh onions)

A few weeks ago, my sister suggested trying this HV spread. I'm hooked on it now.
Doesn't take much...it's got a small am't of heat to it. With onions and cheese on a toasted bun...burgers have never been so good.

Anyone else move away from ketchup and what do you use instead?

If you dip a french fry in mayo....

Well....that's just wrong :D!

^^^ That's the only way I eat frys.
They have to be well done and crispy.

Ugh. To me, wrong on both counts. If I eat fries, I eat them right out of the oil as soon as I can with a little salt added just before serving. Nothing else needed if the fries are fresh cut and properly done.

There should be no oil in the fries. The purpose of the oil is to turn the moisture in the potato to steam and as soon as the steaming is done, so are the fries. Steam drives the oil out.

Same with catfish. You gotta watch the bubbles. They change when it's time. It's a very subtle thing.

Tater Tots dipped in Tartar Sauce....

Yes!

Mayo and mustard here ! Its the only way

I usually go for mayo or tartar sauce for frys. Never tried mustard with mayo....but I will!

I always come back to ketchup on burgers, pinto beans, fries, stuffed peppers, meat loaf, chili, etc., etc.

I haven't used commercial ketchup in years. I switched to this stuff many years ago.

Heinze makes the same stuff. It's not as sweet as ketchup and has a richer flavor. It's not hot at all, I don't know why they call it "chili." “Ketchup for adults” would be more accurate.
When I was a kid dinner was often cornbread and Great Northern beans cooked with a ham bone. I would put ketchup in the bowl of beans. Sounds hideous, but I’ve been tempted to try it again just for the experience.
For the past ten years or so I've made my own ketchup. MrsWD and I have adjusted the recipe over the years to get it just right.

Honey mustard dressing is tasty on burgers. Ketchup is no longer the go to for me for some time now.

If I'm doing keto, Aldi has carb free bread that has a mouth feel somewhere between cardboard and a Scotch-Brite pad. You really need to doll the burger up with juicy stuff to make it palatable, so honey mustard, ranch, mayo and a good mustard are go-tos to stifle the bread. Cheese and guac/tomato also but ketchup seldom makes the cut.

If no keto and a sweet (literally) tasting bun I will use ketchup solo.

Sounds like a decent paving material. I have some cracks in my driveway I need to fill.

Yes, I moved away from ketchup and use catsup instead

ketchup is nearly all sugar..........

not good.

Hot dogs, get castup, mustard chili and onions ,
The dog is just the medium to hold the condiments

Fries dipped in Franks red hot is good.
Steak and shake has some good seasoning on their fries and you can buy it. I’ve only been there once but I bought some of the seasoning it was so good.
Sweet and savory.
I think it’s basically seasoning salt with with sugar so I mix it myself and put it on the fries as soon as they’re done.
Then dip it in franks red hot. Very tasty.
