Image description: [two people are sitting at a table, eating breakfast.]

Person 1: You’re putting ketchup on eggs?
Person 2: Yes.

Person 1: Gross, that looks horrible. Person 2: Thanks.

Person 1: You’re actually going to eat it?! Person 2: What did you think was going to happen?

Person 1: But I said I don’t like it!
Person 2: Okay, so maybe don’t eat any of my food.

    Ketchup on scrambled eggs is delicious

      It’s also the most normie thing imaginable. If Family Feud had a “topping for eggs” question, ketchup would be the top survey response.

        Thank you for your feedback. I shall henceforth strive for more passion and originality in the toppings I choose for scrambled eggs lest I be dubbed an “egg normie”

          …not that there’s anything wrong with that!

        I suspect “cheese” would top, but ketchup would be highly ranked.

      I get shit for this too. oh yeah I bet those microwaved scrambles that have sat under a headlamp for 3 hours have such a delicate flavor profile

        It doesn’t sound great to me but if that’s what he wants to do then I guess go for it lol mayonnaise is mostly eggs and oil so I guess it’s not that weird

      Nope. I’m right, you’re wrong.

        Have you actually tried ketchup on your eggs? It’s delightful

          I’ve tried ketchup and I’ve tried eggs. Nuff said.

            If you haven’t merged the two together then you haven’t truly lived! Let them get to know each other!

          I did as a child and loved it. As an adult, I can abide Sriracha or the like, but plain ketchup sounds vile now.

      My counter-point: The debate about Pepperoni and pineapple

      People seem actually heated about it, but they don’t need to eat it

        I think it’s one of those topics people bring up just to have something to talk about, nobody’s really heated.

    Do what I do: half ketchup, half Sriracha!

      It really depends on how they are cooked, IMHO. (I am making the assumption that you still eat eggs if you must, but with lots of cover-up.)

      If eggs are your only option for food and you have no ketchup, cook them in bacon grease or with lots of butter. Salts and fats work wonders for any food.

      Even fried eggs with a little soy sauce (mushroom soy sauce, specifically) may change the texture and taste enough for you.

      (Also, IMHO, cooking eggs many different ways is an art form. It doesn’t take much to fuck them up and turn people off of them.)

    It’s also a thing about culture eh, here in The Netherlands people will look weird when you put ketchup on egg, while in Japan it’s an actual dish (with rice and chicken) called omurice.
