I feel my Canadian friends use the right amount while my American friends are too conservative.
Why would you make your pasta taste like cheese and then make it stop tasting like cheese?
Any amount over 0, IMO.
Any amount of ketchup on mac and cheese is too much.
Any amount of ketchup on anything is too much.
Add hamburger into the KD and then ketchup becomes acceptable, even encouraged IMO.
And now we have to talk about how any amount of hamburger in mac and cheese is too much.
Hey now.
You’re just straight up wrong. Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad.
Easy mac and a few oz of seasoned ground beef is just sad hamburger helper. It’s good, tho.
This is the answer right here.
Maybe a tsbp so the can stragicially use it as a dip spot for each bite.
The right amount of ketchup on Mac and cheese is zero
Correct
This comment is a declaration of war against Canada
The Leafs suck and Qubec waters down their maple syrup
—That’s a declaration of war against Canada
tbf the maple syrup IS watered down, but it’s super weird because it’s literally the Mafia doing it.
Yeah. One one hand I guess i get it. But that the maple syrup mafia exists blows my mind.
Ce soir, we’re gonna boil you down….
The leafs suck? Welcome honorary Canadian! Come join us on Tuesday to hopefully see the leafs choke yet again against Boston!
BTW, to trigger a good chunk of Canadian’s, just say you made a poutine but used kraft singles (aka American cheese) instead of cheese curds.
I hate myself for even typing that last part.
Oh and hollandaise sauce in place of brown gravy… there’s a real restaurant in Montreal that does that. Granted not the American cheese part.
I mean, hollandaise sauce is delicious, but to put that on poutine? Heresy!
I’m extremely disappointed that a Canadian restaurant would serve that anti Canadian garbage. A poutine is a sacred thing and should never be altered, that’s ground’s for the death penalty if you ask me.
That seems like not enough though.
Zero is arguably too much.
rm -rf’ing ketchup right now
If I had to choose between always eating ketchup on mac and cheese or ketchup just not existing, I’d delete ketchup from existence.
If your Mac n cheese/eggs need ketchup, you need to learn how to make Mac n cheese/eggs.
The right amount of Kraft Mac and Cheese is also zero.
Any ketchup on Mac and Cheese is too much if you are older than twelve.
Use Sriracha like an adult.
Oh yeah, I agree about spice. I mix habanero hot sauce with the ketchup. But the ketchup flavor is my favorite part… I’m a little over twelve.
Do you like fish sticks?
I prefer cayenne pepper on mac and cheese. The flavor profiles work well together, I don’t like adding anything vinegary to M&C, and lord knows it could use some spice.
green habanero Yucateco legit slaps on a baked mac’n’cheese
I haven’t met a Yucateco that doesn’t slap, but the Black Label Reserve Chile Habanero is next level.
It’s SO good! Especially on anything with vegetables in.
If by ketchup you actually mean Branston Pickle, then I’d usually start with a decent tablespoon on the edge and top up if required.
I’m headed to the UK next month, and I should remember to get some. I’ve heard about it for ages but it’s not available here. Bovril and marmite too! Any other oddities that I might actually enjoy (and can fly with)?
I’d say pack your case with Haggis and cold packs but not sure how well that would go down with border control!
There is NO pasta dish that should have catsup on it. None.
It’s basically tomato sauce, plus a little sugar.
And vinegar!
Sugar sauce with Tomato and Vinegar *FIFY
AKA Flavor-Town
We dont defile macaroni and cheese here so zero.
Any is too much, everyone knows ketchup properly belongs on peanut butter sandwiches.
Now I need to know what else you put ketchup on
Fries, hotdogs, cheese sandwiches, brussel sprouts, burgers, normal things.
Brussels sprouts?! I wouldn’t consider that normal
or cheese sandwiches.
Corn dogs and sausages too, it’s just delicious.
I think they’ll like you over at !foodcrimes@midwest.social
uhhhh halfa bottle??? hoping u have a tiny ass bottle cuz anything more than like 2 tablespoons is an insane amount of a plate of Mac and cheese
also no ketchup on box Mac, we aren’t serial killers
I’ve mixed quite a few things into mac & cheese. Ketchup has never been one of them.
Speaking of condiments, mixing about 1 tbsp of mustard (dijon works best, but regular yellow is fine too) into the cheese sauce helps bring out the cheese flavor, but doesn’t make it taste like mustard.
I’ll bet powdered mustard would work well.
It does! I’ve used it a couple times as well, you just need to be really careful not to add too much. I couldn’t tell you how much to use since I just eyeballed the amount I put in.
It also helps if you want to add some shredded cheese. There’s an emulsifier in mustard that helps the cheese melt smoothly into the sauce.
I have no idea how big the bottles are you’re using, but I can tell you… half a bottle is way too fucking much.
That said, I think ketchup on Mac and cheese is absolutely disgusting, but dumping half a bottle of anything into anything is way too much
The answer is hot sauce
