Garvinque Posted May 20, 2017 Report Share Posted May 20, 2017 Who puts ketchup on their eggs? My best friend son thinks we are crazy for using ketchup how do you feel!? Garvin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syzygies Posted May 20, 2017 Report Share Posted May 20, 2017 My New England cousin used to put ketchup on her eggs, when she was a kid. That passed for novelty, when I was a kid. Sriracha would be better. Or a good homemade harissa. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted May 20, 2017 Report Share Posted May 20, 2017 I usually reserve it for fries and burgers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted May 20, 2017 Report Share Posted May 20, 2017 A total abomination! That kid is smart for his age! I'm with Syz, a dash of Sriracha. Never tried Harissa on eggs, but it should work fine. I like Pimenton (Smoked Paprika) and now the Purple Crack! Before Sriracha, I'd occasionally put hot sauce on them, but didn't care for the vinegar base all that much. I'm a Franks over Tabasco guy for that reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 I'm totally down with Shakshuka (eggs poached in a tomato based sauce with peppers and potatoes), it's just that, for me, most commercial ketchup has way too much sugar (in reality - high fructose corn syrup) in them. It has it's place in the kitchen, but on eggs is definitely NOT one of them. JMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuley Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 I did when I was a kid- but my parents are from the north east so that might be where I got it from. Now only salsa or hot sauce. Ketchup is gross on them to me now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 In my wheelhouse, too, Bruce, along with Valentina. At that point, do they become "huevos?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Growing up we never had ketchup in the house. My parents said ketchup was an excuse for a poor cook so I never acquired a taste for it. However I've seen some beautiful cooks accompanied with ketchup posted here. To each their own. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billg71 Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 I grew up in the SE where ketchup was the universal lubricant but I had to go away to prep school before I ever saw someone put it on eggs. So I guess it's a NE thing. Unless it rubs off my hash browns onto my eggs it's not something I've developed a taste for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
