Why in God's name is there an article on this!?-- 195.195.244.153 11:57, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
This is written in a humorous fashion and can hardly be held to violate the NPOV policy insofar as the anti-ketchup people are the only ones to have commented openly about the topic. I will gladly incorporate any pro-ketchup views that I can locate, though I have not run into any of those yet. Jtmichcock 22:36, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
Now I don't know how much the European opinion counts in this debate but usually we dont use ketchup either, even though the option is usually there. At least that's what I was taught... I... think... uh... // Gargaj 23:31, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
ARE YOU PEOPLE MAD? This article is unnecessary, pointless and inane. It has to go! 69.159.124.46 00:44, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
This is some nerd shit right here.
Dang, reading this article really made me want a hotdog with a lot of Ketchup. My stomach is growling and I'm sort of drooling or something.
Despite the fact that ketchup does indeed suck on hot dogs, this article does seem a trifle unnecessary on its own. The topic is probably at least somewhat noteworthy, though, and it may be worth creating a new article on food related taboos, or something along those lines: despite being in the mentioned Chicago-land area, my personal experience would show that "ketchuping" one's EGGS is a matter of much stronger/heated debate than on weiners (though the hot dog is fairly 'sacred' around these parts.) I'm sure there are probably plenty of similar examples that I am either forgetting, or more likely, am not aware of. The obvious problems are that it may be hard to come up with one all-encompassing title/subject for the article, and that it will be tricky to decide what DOES fit into this category (the 'soda/pop/Coke' terminology debate immediately springs to mind as occupying the gray area) and of course, the biggest problem is that compiling an article such as this would take a good deal of effort... and since I almost get the feeling that the effort I'm putting into this mere discussion-page addition is frivolous, it begs the question: is it really worth it? I think as it stands, the best efforts would probably be away from 'is this topic worth mentioning' and toward an expansion into the social phenomenon it illustrates, but my sincere lack of motivation at the moment precludes personal efforts in that direction. 68.78.129.90 18:58, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
I think this article should also expand onto other foods such as hamburgers. Louis' Lunch in New Haven, CT does not serve ketchup with their burgers for similar reasons as people do not put ketchup on hot dogs: they overpower the taste of the hot dog. -- Blue387 09:00, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
I like ketchup on hot dogs, if I was to demand it should I be prepared for a battle? BobbyAFC 07:28, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
You would would more likely be entertained as long as you are prepared for the street theater that will likely result. Jtmichcock 23:19, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
This is a joke....
All merger requests should be posted and left for comment a minimum of seven days per WP:MERGE. This article was merged after less than 24 hours. Can't do that. For the record, OBJECT to merger. Article was partly calved off from Hot dog entry, it was out of place there, which is why this daughter article was created. Jtmichcock 19:09, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
Like many people, I put butter on my bread before applying cheese. I am off to write Butter on my bread. Anyone who wants to verify the "phenomenon" can come to my place around five, when I will be buttering my bread. Grace Note 00:29, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
