Its the same as men being of ares/marduk/mars aka master and commander while women be of venus/ishtar/aphrodite aka love and passion. Im sure you heard this before. Something about sugar amd spice and everything nice.
Of course. Who eats paprika with their breakfast meal? Les ironic is that the fire in question means spirit. Like the spirit that makes your heart sing. Aka chant. Hence chantico the godess of the hearth which is the altar inside every house. The heart that makes a house a home and a building a tabernacle. Vesta and Hestia for the grecoromans. Or the holy spirit/breath of life/shekinah of the hebrews. Or shakti sheshak sancti of the eastern religions. Means vital or life force. Or better yet the brining/carrier of such force. By eating paprika with her fish at breakfast chantico was breaking some taboo which would equate tk strange fire or an alien/other spirit/force.
If you are asking me, and not rhetorically, yes, it is bad. Ketchup is not made to be used with mustard and relish. It blows out the mustard and relish, which are proper and righteous to use on hot dogs. Fuggedaboudit. If you do use ketchup, you will be turned into an Aztec. Or a Giant fan. (Shudder) Thank you.
Actually the mustard cancels out the foul, ketchup is still wrong as BZ states but as long as mustard is present then the hot dog is OK Same with relish.. as long as mustard is present then it's OK. Relish alone? Say whaaat? Same with ketchup alone... say whaaat? That's gross. Ketchup on a burger alone? Fine, no problem (though I still add mustard, hot sauce and cheese)
By way of providing encyclopedic reference: Chick never said "the ketchup is off the hot dog" Need more be said?
Mexicans put mayo on hot dogs. And mayo on pizza. And mayo on pastrami. I dont think they have mayo in Mexico so when they see it free in american restaurant condiment bars they go crazy. FREE MAYONESA!
Ketchup is way towards sweet, and there are mucho other ingredients in ketchup other than tomatoes. I know what you're saying though...my wife used to put ketchup on French toast. When I asked her wth about it, she asked did I put ketchup on a scrambled egg on toast sandwich.? My answer was yes...so she asked me, what's the difference then? I saw her point.
Will always be a mustard only guy. Call me old. At most, I will do a modified Chicagoan with relish, mustard, a pickle and hot pepper (optional). No tomato or tomato product....ever. Mayo is disgusting [Sorry Codge, had to borrow this, feeling kinda Codge-y there]
Okay....its old school. These days you can get foie gras on your damn hotdog. Not into those variations. And I hate Tootsie Rolls. Tootsie Pops on the other hand....
I won't say anything about your Tootsie hatred...in a way, I feel kinda bad for you. But FYI: just yesterday, I had a new flavor Tootsie pop...caramel. Tastes a little like coffee...and when you get down to the chocolate Tootsie center...that's cavity heaven, man. I asked the clerk for another, and she complied. Yeah, baby...
