Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for July 16, 2016

Catsup or ketchup, I’m into it either, Petey.

I can’t even stand the smell of it, my hubby has to wash the dishes on corn dog night.

Now I’m curious about the pickiness index for condiments. There are so many. What’s allowed, and what’s not? Are any encouraged? The mind boggles.

“I’d let a horse p!ss on my steak before I’d put ketchup on it.” James Michener, “Centennial”

the condiment in essence is forbidden, because the condiment implies the mixing of foods which is a cornerstone of picky eating. Different foods are not allowed to touch each other on the plate. Resources: I have 4 kids, one of them is the 23rd pickiest eater in the world, we’re very proud

Try only eating pepper and cucumbers. That might help your rating.

Hubby’s niece spent a month with us one week several years ago. She would only eat four things. I remember pickles and pizza, but time has blessed me and I’ve forgotten the other two items. Even our own kids thought she was crazy.

I never liked ketchup much to begin with, then I had to clean crusty dried ketchup off the edges of fast food restaurant trays. Now I really hate ketchup.

You’d be amazed what you’d eat if you get hungry enough.

Good thing it wasn’t mayo!

Petey can’t cut the mustard.

I wonder if Petey would even consider eating a hot dog? Maybe Chicago style (absolutely, positively, never any catsup/ketchup)? Would he even put a naked frank into a bun—that’s mixing, isn’t it? Does he not eat any sandwiches whatsoever?Pickiness is a very serious pursuit indeed.And a special note of congratulations (I think) to kesting on the 23rd pickiest!

If the catsup was imaginary like Ernesto, his Picky Eater Rating should’ve be affected.

Catsup or ketchup! It’s the same thing. Wh not give it one particular name and leave it be?

Dill is aewsome!
