      Americans. They would even eat old car tires with ketchup.

            A few times. Fantastic marbling but ironically not very good with ketchup.

          I like white rice with cheddar cheese and ketchup. Best to cube your cheese up from a block and put it on last with the ketchup so it doesn’t melt.

          You should see how i make tea.

          That’s fried rice, not white rice steamed or cooked in a rice cooker. I can imagine putting ketchup on a nigiri and immediately getting scolded in Japan.

        I’ve never seen a fellow citizen that was older than 9 eat rice w/ ketchup.

        It’s butter, salt & black pepper in the southern USA, at least.

        Haha I don’t know many American adults who eat ketchup on more than a few foods. Maybe burgers, maybe hot dogs, probably french fries. Most of us hate how it smells too.

      Have you never tried it? It’s quite good, though I haven’t done it since I was a child.

        As a kid I used to eat ketchup on baked potatoes. Probably not bad, but it still grosses me out to think about it.

        Ranch dressing was another good one for baked potatoes. I’m not interested in that now either, but ranch feels much more respectable than ketchup.

        I used to eat ketchup sandwiches when I was a kid. Just ketchup between two pieces of bread.

        I also liked yogurt and cottage cheese mixed together.

        Kids are weird.

      I mean it’s more like childrens’ food so abomination is a bit of an exaggeration but it’s certainly nothing interesting. It’s rice with ketchup.

        Why can’t y’all just make normal children’s food like chicken curry with rice? Stop putting so much sugar and corn syrup in everything.

        If this continues we’ll have to retaliate: see how certain East Asian countries make pizzas and burgers and see how you like it! (PS: it was flatbread with corn and ham as the only toppings)

        Oh and the original answer: since so many people have already answered soy sauce, I’d say chicken soup or pork broth.

          You’re leaving out the mayo though, aren’t you?

      I wouldn’t say it’s common, but I also wouldn’t say it’s unheard of…and I would never put it past Americans to try an odd condiment application.

      Honestly though, when you look at the ingredients, it’s not too drastically far off from the ingredients of a sauce you might specifically put together as part of a more traditional rice dish: tomatoes, vinegar, onion, garlic, ginger, coriander, cumin… bit heavy on the sugar but a lot of sauces in Asian cooking are even sweeter.

      I agree it seems repulsive on the surface to me too, but now that I’ve been thinking about it…I kinda wanna try it.

    If you’re asking who’d put rice with ketchup - my sister used to put ketchup on her popcorn. Microwave popcorn. Pre-buttered.

          Extra virgin olive oil. I’m Italian :D

        Agree, I dont have reliable access to EVOO or good parmigiana. If I had my way all the time it would be thyme and lavender and oregano infused olive oil with cucumbers as well as a three way mixed Parmigiana, Asiago, Oaxaca or dried mozarella.

    Ketchup would be one of my last choices anyway. Maybe with certain mains like fried chicken or chicken fried steak (ok, some people say that’s weird but it’s what we did at Furr’s Cafeteria).

    Right now, probably Marie Sharp’s Beware Habanero sauce. Second choice, chimichurri.

    Those bottles of chili crisp with the face of an angry/disappointed looking Asian lady on the label. So good.
