Re: Are you a member of the 'food police'?
My 10 year old has ketchup with all of his meals and it does niggle at me when ive good a meal and its covered in its own sauce and he reaches for the ketchup. He wont even try food with out it though. My youngest does the same with BBQ sauce and the eldest will at least try it with out sauce says its nice but then asks for ketchup.
My parents and in laws always use salt on everything. In fact my mil adds so much salt to food while she is cooking i have to add sauce to it just to be able to eat it, more so if it is tatties and mash, as its so salty.
In restaurants i would not dream of asking for ketchup maybe black pepper.

Re: Are you a member of the 'food police'?
I have a friend whose whole family utterly cover every meal with it, I mean literally swimming in the stuff! -That naffed me off when they stayed at mine for a week and every meal I cooked was crucufied-even the salad! funnily enough they are always complaining of tongue blisters, I wonder why....
If you want a bit of sauce to enhance your food- fine! but just have a dollop on the side of your plate! there are limits and no, I cant bear to see the Ozzies lift the lid on thier 'pies' and slather the ketchup on top- yuk but I just let them get on with it

I watched a tv programme not long ago about the sugar in sauces and they showed this one young girl, about 5 as I recall who had had almost all her baby teeth filled or removed due to the 1 bottle of ketchup she consumed every week.

Yes m'lud - I have to confess I am! 
It did really wind me up when my ex would empty the sauce bottle on top of absolutely anything! I know other members of the force too. A friend wad telling me how he made Arancini and bought some really pricey cheese for em and his OH just covered them in Tommy K...or sugar solution as I call it!
