The "ketchup on a hot dog" debate[1] concerns the question of if ketchup is a valid condiment for hot dogs. Within the city of Chicago, United States, it is considered a culinary taboo to condiment hot dogs with ketchup.[2] US President Barack Obama once said in 2016 that "it is not acceptable after the age of 8" to season the meal thus.[3]
Background
[edit]Ketchup is a general name for various salty and spicy condiments, the most famous being tomato ketchup, which has a salty taste.[4] A hot dog consists of a long frankfurter sausage within a long bun.[5]
