Yes, it is tangier - I suppose a bit sweeter too - yet the Canadian version has fewer calories - go figure.

There was a whole thread about this here:

What the heck did they do to the Heinz Ketchup?

Okay now THAT is a little twisted there, my friend. But I will admit that one of the reasons that I love french fries and even hotdogs as they are both vehicles for condiments.

I adore condiments. Mustard of all varieties, ketchup, relish, mayo, pickles, olives...

you name it, I am there.

But the condiment sammich?

Blurgh....

:D

Mmmmmmm.....

Ketchup!

I love it on eggs. Yeah, that's right. Ketchup and pepper! :D

Oh, absolutely. I have it on eggs too!

In fact, I've been known to make the occasional ketchup and mayo sandwich when I'm too lazy to make a better snack.

Hah! Yes, I think most people think I'm nuts for liking a sandwich with mayo and ketchup. But when you think about it, how is it different from dipping fries in ketchup...or dipping a grilled cheese in it? Not much difference at all!

Ketchup is best on frog legs though. Yep, just dice up the little green critter, fry him for ten minutes, then dip that frog leg in Heinz. Mmm. Nothing's tastier!

You leave my legs alone!!! I need those to hop away with!

God, I am trying to eat my veggies and for a snack today, I brought in raw broccoli, carrots and cauliflower. Now, with this thread, all I want is a burger.

#######? How come I can't get my body to crave veggies the same way it craves burgers or fries or chips???

:(

HEY!!!

You nutty mixture of nuts, dried fruits and Smarties! You'd better watch it yourself or there is going to be some G.O.R.P action going down!

;)

Trailmix by definition...

You could, just batter them and deep fry them.

I crave veggies sometimes when I feel like I didn't eat enough during the day. I kinda feel like I'm cheating my body out of vitamins and minerals that it needs to stay healthy.

That being said I crave chocolate WAY more often than veggies LOL

On the eKetchup topic - yep, big difference. My brother noticed swhen he hit McDonalds in the US on the trip down last week. Saltier here i think, sweeter in Canada.

I <3 ketchup!

On the Red Robin topic - I don't think I've ever really had a great meal there, not my fav spot at all...and I like burgers

I have to agree....I have been to Red Robins many time, and the Burgers were ok...not the best tho. My fav Burger place is "The Works" http://www.worksburger.com/pdf/menu.pdf They have about 70 different combinations of toppings.....even one called "Crappy Tire" (and you can use canadian tire money to pay for it!!). They have the best milkshakes and onion rings as well!!
