Ketchup, and its alias catsup, is the condiment of sadness knowing that you could truly have had a better hot dog by putting mustard on it instead.

Both at the same time is the normal way to eat a hot dog. It's hardly a one or the other situation.

I think legendary columnist Mike Royko said it best, if anyone wanted to put ketchup on their hot dog, they would have the right to do so, but "It is also their right to put mayo or chocolate syrup or toenail clippings or cat hair on a hot dog. Sure, it would be disgusting and perverted, and they would be shaming themselves and their loved ones. But under our system of government, it is their right to be barbarians" (via Chicago PBS affiliate WTTW via mashed.com)

I mean, hot dogs are kinda gross with any condiments. Why would anyone voluntarily eat a Frankfurter when Bratwurst exists?

Ketchup is probably the most overused and overrated condiment in America. It immediately transforms any food--any at all--to its least-impressive, most basic form.

Honest to God not kidding around, never seen anyone object to ketchup on a hot dog.

Now ketchup on Mac and cheese is an atrocity.

You can certainly try. I'll need you to make a Wisdom check, with disadvantage.

I wouldn't do it, because Ketchup only goes on burgers (and only if you don't have any pimento cheese), but
