Rock'n Condiments - Ketchup

Ketchup is another very useful and helpful condiment.

It comes in different shades of red and bottle designs. Ketchup should have the nickname of "Ket" cause that would be totally awesome. I wonder if you could buy low-fat ketchup - check at your local store and find out! Many people have discovered new and exciting uses for ketchup!

According to Reader's Digest, ketchup is being used as a shampoo that helps to get rid of chlorine green from swimming in pools and other chlorinated liquids. So... next time you take a shower first condition your hair with mayonnaise then shampoo it with ketchup a great alternative for regularly used products.

Other uses include... washing stuff with it! Some of the best items it cleans are jewelry, pots and pans. You put on the ketchup then wash it and dry it immediately. So...why take your rings to a jewelry store to clean it when all they do is put ketchup on it.

What could we definitely not do without ketchup?

Well, in the good old days - which would not be so good without ketchup - nobody could ever get hurt in a movie cause after someone is hit with a car nothing would happen to them - that could only happen to superman! I wonder how many pounds of ketchup the world consumes in a year - hope its less than mayo! Well, I found one crazy young guy that ordered only a whole box full of restaurant sized packets of ketchup and he got it! Wow, that’s crazy!

Mhmm...anything else to do with it...yeah - if you have kids, they'll love this one. Well, instead of being a boring old parent - not that you are - be hip and cool, take you ketchup out of the cold fridge along with the finger paints - substitute the ketchup for red finger paint! You can make a masterpiece then dip popcorn onto the paper and have an awesome snack later.

Why do we put ketchup on foods that don't go great with tomatoes? Like popcorn, many people do it but it's not a great combo. Why do people have problems with eating tomatoes versus ketchup? Come on, there the same thing - give the tomato a chance - one is just mashed up for the elderly.

How many things can you do with ketchup? Let me know how many you can figure out!

Viva La Ketchup!

Rock'n Condiments - Mayonnaise

Mayonnaise is a very useful and helpful condiment. It comes in many shapes, forms, sizes, and jars. Mayonnaise is commonly named “Mayo”. Mayo comes in many different varieties such as light, regular, reduced fat etcetera.

One very great thing about mayo is that many people do not realize that you can eat it by itself or on different foods, such as crackers and sandwiches. Everybody should be careful about how much mayo they consume because it clogs your main arteries and can kill you eventually.

Mayo is largely consumed all over the world, especially in the most obese country, the United States of America. As www.nytimes.com says, “Mayo is king in New Orleans, where they eat 2.4 times as much as anywhere else.” This is amazing! They eat twice as much mayo as anywhere else on the planet.

Mayo is also commonly found in fruit dips and put on potatoes. What would the world do without mayonnaise? Many people would detest for this to happen, a world without mayo would be like a world without a sun, unable to live and sustain life. I think this because mayonnaise is always being sold all over the world, which helps our economy, and many people use it every day of their lives.

There are many myths to curing a cold or anything. Many people do not know but mayonnaise can be used as a facial cleanser, to reduce sunburn pain, or even used as a lubricant to get off tight rings and other tight objects that are stuck or not easy to move. According to Reader’s Digest, mayo is now being used to condition hair. In a recent article, Reader’s Digest says “Hold the mayo... and massage it into your hair and scalp just as you would any fine conditioner!”

People do not realize how useful a condiment can be. They are not there just to eat, but as presented above, they have many different uses in addition to the most common one.

About Rock'n Condiments

My very first series is named "Rock'n Condiments"... How did you come up with this you may ask?

Well... being my random self... during a discussion my mom and my brother was having about writing a paper, my brother challenged me to right a paper (at least 250 words) about something hard... and I chose Mayonnaise... I soon found out when writing my paper on Mayonnaise that there are very amazing things - which you can read in my following post "Rock'n Condiments - Mayonnaise" - so I wanted to start a series about Condiments and how they rock!
