    Which one do you say? I hear people around my town referring to ketchup as "red sauce", I thought it was a local thing until I heard people in Kilkenny saying it. I never hear people saying it in college. What do you say?

    I think a better question is whether or not one keeps such a condiment in the fridge...or refrigerator.

    Chef products are disgusting

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    There's only one valid question when it comes to ketchup - incidentally I just answered your question there - and that's Heinz or Chef.

    It's the whole tomato/tomato debate all over again.

    For the record, it's pronounced tomato!

    Ketchup... in most cases.
    But on a breakfast roll it's red sauce... mostly so that they dont make a mistake and put brown sauce on it.
    It's all about context... context is important.

    ketchup...in fact i'd go as far as "tomato ketchup"....

    I remember coming to Ireland for the first time back in the day, and falling about laughing at people calling ketchup 'tomato ketchup'. :D What else would ketchup be, but tomato?

    A lot like the title of that Michael Douglas film, "Falling Down". :pac: (I know, betraying my age here, big time...)

    Oh great traveller from another land, do you dare laugh at the Heinze Corporation who label their ketchup thus?

    There are other types of ketchup. Perhaps you should be laughing at your own lack of culinary knowledge?

    I pretty much always call it ketchup now, but as a child I called it red sauce.

    Red Sauce
    Red sauce sounds ridiculous. First of all the obvious point that many sauces are red. But secondly it just makes you sound like a retard who finds the actual name too difficult.


  • Registered Users Posts: 295 ✭✭hames


    Red Sauce
    Country people love calling it red sauce
    Country people also love the "chef" kind, where the more urbane urbanite favors "heinz".

    these are incontrovertible facts and anyone who disputes them is an apologist for country people and their strange, eccentric ways.

    From wiki:
    Ketchup started out as a general term for sauce, typically made of mushrooms or fish brine with herbs and spices. Mushroom ketchup is still available in some countries, such as the UK.

    And where its not available - lots still make a sort of mushroom ketchup as it goes quite well with beef.

    Three tomatoes are walking down the street- a poppa tomato, a momma tomato, and a little baby tomato. Baby tomato starts lagging behind. Poppa tomato gets angry, goes over to the baby tomato, and smooshes him... and says, Catch up.

    Always assumed "red sauce" was a lower class thing. Like "Santy".

    I've heard tomato sauce/ ketchup isn't actually 100% tomato but they have been adding grapes.

    The story is about to break on sky news. Stay tuned for. Ore info

    I say ketchup most people I know say red sauce.

    I sometimes say brown sauce for BBQ as I have a english accent some people can't understand me when I say that word.

    Kandee Ketchup.

    OP, there is more than one sauce which is red. Someone who'd say "I want red sauce on my chips" probably lives in their pyjamas. Catsup anyone?

    Red Sauce
    Red sauce is what children say.

    You can tell a lot by the way people talk. Some haven't discovered big words like 'Ketchup' as yet.

    'Red Sauce'....call it a benchmark of immaturity.

    it's heinz or nothing and if you don't put it in the fridge i hate you.
