In anticipation of this month's Triple B--Burgers, Beers, and Bars--a burning, burger-related question for the 12 Inch Poll.

You gonna squirt ketchup on that burg? And, if so, WHY!?

I'm not hot-taking here, I'm speaking from the heart: ketchup is an abomination. It's the anti-condiment; instead of enhancing the flavor of what it's slathered on to, it erases the flavor completely, with it's not-quite-sweet, not-quite-tangy awfulness.

Ketchup is an assumption. You're putting it on things because you've always put it on things. Stop to think for a moment and you'll realize: "Wow, this is gross! And completely unnecessary."

But old habits die hard, don't they? So when you belly up to Prezo Grille & Bar in Milford with me on Thursday, will you say "pass the ketchup" or "hard pass on the ketchup?" Vote! And I'll see you at Triple B's.
