Even good, fancy ketchup?
Yes. I've had a variety of different homemade ones at nice restaurants (sriracha ketchup, etc.) and they all still taste like ketchup. If you can't make food that tastes good and need to include ketchup with it, maybe don't make it?

The only place I will eat it is on a burger, but I don't put it on there myself. I just got used to fast food burgers coming with it, so if it is already on, I'll eat it.

I used to not be this way, but as I've grown older and appreciated good food more, I've learned to dislike it.

I might be headed down this road too. Let's revisit this in the winter.

I only really eat it with french fries anymore. And most of the time without it.

Always order a burger (or whatever) with your choice of sauce on the side. You can then open up that bad boy and apply the sauce perfectly to your liking. Ketchup (except on hash browns), mayo, and mustard are all terrible. I either go for bbq sauce, siracha, or sweet chili sauce for burgers... Whatever is available...

but ALWAYS on the side!

A properly cooked burger usually doesn't need any kind of sauce on it. However, I do like my mustard and mayo and aioli. Sometimes a hot sauce or something. Just depends on the mood. But never ketchup under any circumstances. Ketchup should be reserved only for terrible potatoes. Bad fries or the like.

The problem with ketchup is that it dominates all other flavors. If you hate the thing you're eating and want it to taste like ketchup, then put ketchup on it.

Team DCT on ketchup.

Also, don't ruin my fucking steak with A.1. or some other rancid steak sauce.
