Ketchup is fine for small children and the infirm. But that’s it. Everyone else should be using mustard, (preferably with horseradish in it), or some other stronger flavored condiment. Be the adult you are!
Mustard is gross af too, though. Horseradish is biological warfare, not edible food, and I will die on that hill.
I’m not a condiment person, even adding salt and pepper “to taste” is something I very very rarely do. Condiments are a waste of cooking skill and good ingredients. If I use anything it’s probably hot sauce or like sweet chilli or something actually transformative, or the food is barely edible without it (which I try to avoid). Everything else can go straight in the trash.
I like the actual taste of my food, no need to cover it up and make it taste exactly the same way every single time via condiments. Be an adult and experience subtle flavor variety.
Ofc maybe you need condiments because you are a shit cook. That’s ok too, but it doesn’t make you more adult than someone who prefers things differently.

What a silly statement.
That was the point…

I think every Michelin Star chef and restaurant on the planet would disagree with you. But hey, you do you.
