wtf? should have used HP Sauce

Meine Damen und Herren, ein grosse sh*tstorm! (snoball), Saturday, 13 July 2013 15:00 (ten years ago) link

i have a vivid memory of visiting still-commie poland as a kid and getting "pizza" off a street stall that literally was just bread with ketchup on top

later on in life i would have a gf that liked to dip her slices in a bit of ketchup on the side. found the vinegar boost hard to resist myself after a while tbh

Also, is that necklace made out of teeth? Because, you know, arguing about choice of pizza condiments with someone who wears a necklace made out of teeth seems unwise.

Meine Damen und Herren, ein grosse sh*tstorm! (snoball), Saturday, 13 July 2013 15:01 (ten years ago) link

she'd never put it actually on top of the za tho. or wear that outfit

r|t|c, Saturday, 13 July 2013 15:02 (ten years ago) link

they look like seashells. a necklace of teeth would be bitchin' though: cannibal chic

this is the least of ketchup savagery though, i mean i know this one guy, you'll make him a beautifully scrambled or soft boiled eggs and what does he do yep you guessed it

r|t|c, Saturday, 13 July 2013 15:13 (ten years ago) link

Wait now, are we differentiating twn ketchup and say a tomato relish, cos the latter just loves egg yolk ime

dub job deems (darraghmac), Saturday, 13 July 2013 15:20 (ten years ago) link

non-britisher ketchup story: at lunch with co-workers and this one guy i didn't know so well ordered a burger and when it came asked for a bottle of ketchup. the server said they only supplied it the little pots. without pausing the guy said he wanted six of them. then proceded to pour ketchup over every bite he took.

First day in the US, my husband is dining alone, eating chips or something (fries! god) and asks for tomato sauce. The waiter is hugely confused, trying to work out what kind of tomatoey sauce he could possibly mean, eventually bringing out the chef so that they can work together and bring him this elusive jus.

And I'm not even sure what this means. Garage? That's not how you pronounce garage. Kedgeree? David Gedge? Nope, not those either.

I think the fact that the shrimp on the pizza were served in-shell is the worst part; it's like getting barbecue chicken pizza with the chicken in the form of bone-in wings

that said, HP sauce is indeed superior to any US condiment

In Trinidad you have to specifically ask them not to smother your pizza in hot pepper sauce, otherwise it comes as standard irrespective of which pizza you ordered. Ketchup is barbarianism, though.

Hadn't noticed this thread. If pizza wasn't a mongrel food to begin with, someone might have cause to be offended.

The endgame is of course curry nacho cheeseburger pizza. It will hit all the salt/sugar/fat buttons and we'll love it.

A place around the corner does a pizza with gyro meat, black olives, red onions, fresh tomatoes, spinach, feta cheese, tzatiziki sauce and extra cheese. It's my go-to whenever we order in lately.
