The Rules of Ketchup (Part 1)

 Recently I had the pleasure of interviewing THE Mr. Colby about the official rules of eating ketchup. As it turns out there is a lot more to it than one would think, and will be installed in parts. But without further ado, here are the rules of eating ketchup, as told by Mr. Colby.

1. A Ketchup lover must eat ketchup with starches (fries, mashed potatoes, rice) AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

2. A Ketchup lover must eat ketchup with cheesies (mac and cheese, etc.) AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

3. A Ketchup lover must eat ketchup with savories (meat, eggs, breaded calimari etc.) AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

4. Thou shalt not pour ketchup into liquids.

5. Thou shalt not put ketchup on thy desserts.

6. Ketchup is a spice. Thou shalt not question this rule.

7. Thy fancy ketchup shalt only be used in fancy situations.

8. Ketchup is the one and only prime condiment. Thou shalt not have any other condiments before Ketchup (although it's totally okay to leave ketchup off a hot dog, but put mustard on it).

9. According to Nix v. Heddon, Ketchup is classified as a fruit (as well as a spice). President Reagan had the right idea, with the wrong food group.

10. Experimenting with ketchup is always okay. Even if you end up with blob of it on a granola bar and you get photographed doing it. SOCIETY CAN'T TAME YOU.

Was this Kelsey's idea? I feel like this might have been her work.

A slightly abbreviated version went something like this...Ian: noooooo don't take pictures of me eating, there are too many of those!!Me: Can I make a tumblr of you eating?

Ian: Only if it's out of love.

And if you were asking if Kelsey was the one that made this tumblr. Well then, yes.
