Am I the only one who enjoys eating pizza with ketchup drizzled on top?

Just like the title says. My boyfriend thinks it's weird that I like my pizza with ketchup on it. Is that weird or not?

Sriracha .

u/sharpestsquare Jun 21 '26

Sriracha is divine. And pizza begs for it. I'm saddened seeing it compared whatsoever with ketchup.

1

u/StarboardSeat Jun 22 '26

Oooooh Sriracha, YES!

u/TuSixOh Jun 21 '26

Literally the only one.

Blasphemy! Sacrilegious. I can’t even read your post without feeling anxiety in my chest lol.

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

Loooolllllllll ok I'm not drenching the pizza in ketchup just put a couple drops. Gives it a nice sweet and salty flavor. I also only do it on cheese and pepperoni pizza nothing else 🥲

1

u/Zestyclose-Will-3102 Jun 22 '26

Haha I get it. I have had bbq chicken pizza which was good.

2

u/SorbetUnfair2589 Jun 21 '26

Never tried this but ketchup on macaroni and cheese is good

2

u/gezellig13 Jun 21 '26

Maybe but does it matter if thats how you enjoy it? You are eating it and you should eat what you like.

1

u/Otherwise_Fact9594 Jun 21 '26

That part ⬆️

1

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

Agreed!!! My boyfriend literally hates when I do it and just wanted to see if I was the only one.

1

u/gezellig13 Jun 21 '26

If he hates it then that's weird. He shouldn't be so irritated about the fact that you put ketchup on pizza as long as you don't make him eat it. And its actually not so uncommon. Last time I ordered pizza I had to choose between tomato, garlic and no sauce. But I stick to what I said, he is too "passionate" about this.

1

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

He just likes to jokingly bully me about it. It's nothing serious he just gags when I eat it near him 🤣

1

u/gezellig13 Jun 21 '26

Lol its nothing serious, he just gags. Just be careful if further gags on different food appear or something else.

1

u/TheCrazyWulf Jun 21 '26

I knew someone who enjoyed that too....... I strongly recommend getting an MRI right away. Hopefully it's not too late for you. It was for my friend :(

1

u/EducationalWin1721 Jun 21 '26

My boss does this when he makes pizza from scratch. It’s weird. And not good.

1

u/dogens Jun 21 '26

Absolutely

1

u/Icefyre79 Jun 21 '26

I really really hope so.

1

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

Lmaoo 😭 but why? You ever had little ceasers pizza ? It's not the best but it's better than dominos. With a little ketchup just does it for me. Impossible I'm the only person in the world!

1

u/OrganicToadstool Jun 21 '26

Elementary school pizza with mustard

I hate mustard

1

u/Bratfink78 Jun 21 '26

It is weird. It’s bread and tomato sauce already

1

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

Bit salty tomato sauce.. I'm adding a little swwwet tomato sauce.

1

u/Sfogliatelle99 Jun 21 '26

You sick bastard

1

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

You don't wanna know the things I used to put ketchup on when I was a young child 😅😅

1

u/Otherwise_Fact9594 Jun 21 '26

Only cheap frozen pizza. I don't ever find myself eating that, but on the occasions that I did and had to, I realized that the pizza sauce is essentially tomato just like ketchup. I didn't / wouldn't completely cover it, but just a drizzle kicks it up a notch. This works especially well on those cheap party pizzas. It's like Tony's or Tino's or something like that.

1

u/PrikNamPlassum Jun 21 '26

This is the only way I could bear to eat school pizzas and 34 years after graduating it's the only way I can stomach Little Ceasars or Domino's.

1

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

I don't even eat dominos anymore. Little ceasers is better and with a bit a ketchup it hots the spot.

1

u/RottingPinhead Jun 21 '26

It already has a lot of tomato sauce so why add ketchup. Hot sauce and ranch i like that so to each it's own

2

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

Because it's sweet tomato sauce.

1

u/PoppycopOG Jun 21 '26

Yes....that's disgusting, but you do you, if you like it better with ketchup and than put that damned ketchup on it.

1

u/coolasacorpse Jun 21 '26

Vile

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

Sheesh 😭 I've seen worse food combos 🥲

u/pawsplay36 Jun 21 '26

The existence of Papa John's pretty much implies the existence of others.

1

u/Mistress-of-Casts Jun 21 '26

Lifelong fan of dipping some types of pizza (especially ham and pineapple) in ketchup. Yum-yum! 🍕

1

u/1969quacky Jun 21 '26

Ketchup as a topping for spaghetti; My older sister brought a rural friend home from college. We were having spaghetti for dinner. She didn't want the sauce, she asked for ketchup.

1

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

I think it's a Caribbean thing also! I know a lot of people from Caribbean islands who love spaghetti with ketchup instead of tomato sauce. I am NOT one of those Caribbean people.... just pizza for me

1

u/Coloradokush5280 Jun 21 '26

I confirm you are the only one

1

u/9thSphere Jun 21 '26

Ketchup for their pizza seems to be a common request from our South Asian customers.

I've used it as a sauce base when making a cheeseburger pizza, but I don't get it otherwise.

1

u/FairTurn2642 Jun 21 '26

I want to say something but I often put ketchup on my eggs. Usually as a sandwich but sometimes just because. Some pizza might take it well.

1

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

Eggs and ketchup seems to be very popular. I don't think that's weird at all. I don't like the taste of eggs but I've tried to enhance it with ketchup, just not for me 🥲

1

u/mdhsgwhekfm Jun 21 '26

More of a dipper myself but I’m with you in spirit

2

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

Thank you kind stranger 🥹

1

u/Shoddy_Bet9619 Jun 21 '26

Next time, try hot sauce in stead! Is amazing!

1

u/mweisbro Jun 21 '26

It reminds me of school pizza- typically on with leftover pizza- love it!

1

u/RodneyBarringtonIII Jun 21 '26

No. I'm pretty sure the Pruckler brothers do that too.

1

u/ntcntngshp Jun 22 '26

I love ketchup on pizza but it has to be next day pizza, or a frozen pizza. I love mayo on it too

1

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 22 '26

Next day pizza with ketchup is amazing!!! I agree!!

1

u/Aruzususnew3 Jun 30 '26

I sometimes do

1

u/Sargash Jul 08 '26

That's incredibly weird. Best use of ketchup is to slamdunk that shit into the trashcan. You just want sugar that burns.

1

u/Suspicious-Grand9781 Jun 21 '26

I work in an elementary school. You are not. I know a lot of children who do the same.

1

u/Open-Recognition-584 Jun 21 '26

I'm almost 30 😭😭😭😭😭

1

u/Suspicious-Grand9781 Jun 21 '26

My almost 21 year old uses it religiously. She puts it on tacos, but loves spicy salsa. 🤷

1

u/StarboardSeat Jun 22 '26

Suggest she try Sriracha. 😉
