Damn it; I like ketchup with my hot dog.

No joke… dad grew up in the depression, so even when we got ahead he would still serve a half-assed soup made from the wiener water.

I think the ingredients were hot dog water and a bowl to serve it in.

Chicago dog at a place that really does it well, like Portillos, with cheese fries is “last meal” worthy.

I also like the occasional chili dog. Portillo’s does a very good one.

My mom thought a piece of bread folded in half with just mustard on it = three meals.

And ketchup doesn’t belong on a sando either.

What about a meatloaf sandwich?

Can do on a meatloaf sandwich BUT I found BBQ sauce was better and did away with the bland. Oh yeah, I also use BBQ on my mashed potatoes instead of gravy.

Seems to be an almost universally held food no no; and I imagine I may lose friends over this.

But for me, the sweetness of the ketchup marries beautifully with the salt of the dog. All you need is a touch of mustard for perfection.

Ate them that way when I was a kid and also put ketchup on scrambled eggs. No more…but, hey, if you enjoy it, why not?

Ketchup on chafing dish scrambled eggs is a last resort.

I am trying to think of a wiener water equivalent to the pasta water in Cacio e Pepe.

[Chris_Blum]

Yeah, the odd fake smoke flavor was… what’s the opposite of good?

[mark_rudner]

game changer for me
may change some minds

I don’t know who you are anymore, Mark.

Pod person ? A Thing from Antarctica? Demonic possession?

The worst thing about this thread is that now I have a craving for a fried bologna sandwich and I don’t think I’ve had one for over 30 years.

1 billion Chinese can’t be wrong.

(Photo taken recently in Shanghai near Yu Garden. I had already had lunch, so didn’t order one.)

[David_K_o_l_i_n]

Looks like the have ketchup, mayonnaise and lettuce on the one behind it. They can’t be wrong

[Craig_G]

I’m just here to object in principle to the term “wiener water.”

Tough to think of an alternative…

Doggy dredges?

Frankfurter fluids?

[JasonK]

I grew up in Chicago. To this day I go back home to visit and order a hot dog with ketchup-only at Portillos. Deal with it =)

btw, meatloaf sandwich is great with some basil pesto!

[David_K_o_l_i_n]

I like French fries with mustard and/or mayo.

I will never understand why ketchup on hot dogs is wrong. That’s how I’ve always eaten them.
