Okay, I always take you at your word, so I hope we're good (not that I thought we were bad).

I like Paul Newman's bbq sauce on hamburgers. I'd like to think it imparts some of his ideal masculinity to the burger.BostonBeaneater wrote: ↑04 Mar 2019, 12:35pmEver mix it with mayo? It's good.
Alternate take: I hear Orchids of Asia has the best Kraft sauce available.

I actually don’t mind generic BBQ sauce or steak sauce on burgers.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑04 Mar 2019, 1:00pmI like Paul Newman's bbq sauce on hamburgers.

I can'y figure out why anyone would want ketchup over BBQ sauce. I go with Sweet Baby Ray's for my mass produced BBQ sauce.Wolter wrote: ↑04 Mar 2019, 1:02pmI actually don’t mind generic BBQ sauce or steak sauce on burgers.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑04 Mar 2019, 1:00pmI like Paul Newman's bbq sauce on hamburgers.

A1 is good with fries, though.revbob wrote: ↑01 Mar 2019, 10:50pmYeah I'll go hungry. I'm proud to say my 13 yo kid didn't know what A1 was until the other day when he saw it on a menu and asked me. One of the great things about a steak is you really only need like 3 things for a great steak. Heat, salt, pepper.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑01 Mar 2019, 9:04pmI recall a fundraiser dinner the Boss and I went to where the "steak" was assmeat. Any and all condiments were acceptable to cover up the natural … qualities of the meat.

Re: Ahoy, dars a Matey sighting
Yup yup yup. Plus a lot of prepacked food comes with the mayo already globbed on, when all condiments should be optional. They're the only thing you can't remove if you don't like it.revbob wrote: ↑04 Mar 2019, 11:00amYou can tell places to hold the mayo but lots of times I find the people doing the food prep are too used to making something a certain way and just make it. It happens to me a lot. A menu only days cheeseburger and I tell them I dont want the cheese or no salt on the fries because so many places overdo salt and a majority of the time I get the cheese and the salt. I ve had the same issue with mayo on burgers and other "special sauces".Wolter wrote: ↑04 Mar 2019, 10:25amYeah. My issue is that mayo is one of the easiest things to avoid eating if you just ask them to hold it, and so many people turn it into a hill to die on.
My only issue ever with cilantro for example was that it was often snuck into food without warning (which is rare these days - it’s now listed on menus more often).

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
Re: Ahoy, dars a Matey sighting
And sometimes it's not on the menu, so first you have to ask if it comes with mayo, and then ask for NO mayo.
