Ketchup

Ketchup: the silent hero of every diner table. Funny thing is, people will defend ketchup on fries like they’re paid spokespeople, but let someone put it on a hotdog in Chicago, and suddenly it’s culinary blasphemy. It's the superhero of condiments, swooping in to save bland burgers and disappointing fries across the globe. Every household fridge honors it with a front-row seat, yet it's still underappreciated in gourmet circles.
