Although I'll eat them if they come on a fast food order, I stopped using ketchup, mustard and mayo at home after I switched to my current low-sodium, small portions lifestyle. Nothing I eat needs 'em, anyway.
Cei-U!
I summon the healthier eating!

My son does the same with ketchup on almost everything he does like. Strangely he doesn't like mac & cheese. But he does on chicken. And not like a fast food breaded chicken sandwich, but like, grilled, baked, rotisserie ... Personally I've found less and less uses for ketchup the older I get. I don't put it on burgers I make, but I can eat restaurant or fast food burgers with them on it. I rarely use it on fries anymore, unless they are just really bland fries that need flavor. My younger daughter puts ketchup on dang near everything as well, including chicken like your son. We had grilled chicken breasts last night, and she had her pile of ketchup to dip the individual bites into. Lol ... it's so horrible to watch. I took all that time to marinade and grill that chicken and that's how you thank me?! :-) But how old are your kids? The one who inflicts ketchup on her mac'n'cheese is 26. My wife likes ketchup on her hot dogs which I suppose isn't so bad, though realistically the only condiment that should go on hot dogs is mustard. |

Hot dogs ... mustard and either sauerkraut or dill relish for me. |

I only get the urge to use A1 when I'm not happy with the quality of the steak, or if it's too well done. But I'm super picky about steak so pretty much if it isn't rib eye I'll want A1 on it

I'll admit to liking tartar sauce with my fish, but I can't understand paying top dollar for a good steak and then drowning it in A1 sauce. Usually in restaurants when the server brings my steak they ask about steak sauce. I usually tell them I'll try the steak first, but probably won't need the sauce. At least a couple of times I saw an expression from the server that said they appreciated that, so I'm guessing it bugs them too. Funny story about the bolded part: At the rehearsal dinner for my wedding, our guests had the option of filet mignon or broiled fish (my parents were paying, and that was what they wanted as choices). My best man's fiance had selected the filet, as had one of my other groomsmen, and when the server brought their plates, each one of them asked for steak sauce. My best man and I sat aghast at this (we're both foodies, and he has been a restaurant manager for years), and we called them out on it. When they asked why, our response was "because it's filet, and you just don't do that to filet." I haven't had steak in years but When I did use A1 sauce it was only little bit on the steak. |

Anything other than the occasional use of ketchup for french fries is a complete and total offense and should be illegal. It gags me. My brother puts ketchup on his ham sandwiches, and I criticize him for it every single time. |

Whenever I buy a bottle of ketchup, I usually throw it out 3 or 4 years later with 2/3 of the content still in the bottle.

I made a delicious ham for Easter (which was huge so we're still pulling bits of it from the freezer to make meals from), which if anyone had put ketchup on it I probably would have made some remarks inappropriate to the spirit of the day. |

Right?! I wouldn't even have ketchup in the house if my kids didn't eat it with french fries. I won't eat burgers with ketchup on them. I won't eat meatloaf with ketchup on it <----That just made me gag. |

We sometimes do a recipe for a sauce to go with spicy meatballs where we fry up a lot of garlic (like 4 or 5 cloves) in some olive oil, add a can of chopped tomatoes, some honey and an entire bottle of BBQ sauce and then let it reduce some. I do believe the recipe is called "sticky balls."
