If ketchup is good on chips why isn't it good on mash potato?

I used to know someone who put ketchup on mashed potatoes, and I can see why it's not popular because it looked GROSS.

Deep fried potatoes are called French fries here. All the hamburger joints serve them and every other restaurant. Ketchup/catsup is considered a condiment. We eat it with fries.

it depends on the chips, but in general, they are not a helathy food choice. they are high in sodium, carbohydrates, and fat. Many of them also have MSG, an artificial flavor inhancer. i would say keep your chip consumption to a minimum, and focus on healthier snacks like fresh fruit, veggies, smoothies, and nuts. also be sure and get 6-8 glasses of water a day!!! ;D

Yes, go into the kitchens of some of the finest restaurants and you'll see them peeling potatoes! Also they make great maids, nannies and house keepers!

::::pulls her wadded up flyer out of the trash, wipes off ketchup and doggy doo:::  Here, you can have mine.\n\n=================\n\nI had fun giving the answer jhune.  Of course, the dud above me will win the 10 points.  Maybe if I had wiped off the Ranch Dressing from the flyer too it would have made a difference.

They are creating energy.  I assume that you are talking about those clocks that you plug into the potatoe.\n\nTHe answer is that the potatoe is slowely rotting (its not rotten yet, just starting inside).  Every vegetable and meat, even when fresh, is starting to degrade like this.\n\nAnd this creates heat and energy. Thats why compost piles smoke a little or steam.

Right this is why.... potatoes were a strange food that had never been intoduced before to france, not like now a days when you can have all mannor of strange and wonderful things. Now because it was so unusaual people were a little frightened of them, So they were introduced as being like and apple cause everyone knew what they were and liked them, so it took some of the fear away cause an apple of the earth cant be unnatural!! my french teacher told me that (she was an old french lady too to add to the arthantisity of it all) cause like you i wondered why!! hope this answers your question!

Salt is an impurity which increases the boiling point of water.  This causes more heat to be supplied to the potato and thus cooks it faster.

umm what reaction??  this sounds suspiciously like something having to do with catalase producing hydrogen peroxide (an AP Bio lab), in which case the liver would have a higher reaction rate because there is more of the substrate than there is in the potato.... and i'm blanking on the rest, sorry.

You tweaked my curiousity and I've been trying to find out but so far no luck.  I think it has something to do with the heating process causing a change in the starch, converting it to sugar.  I hope someone answers who knows the answer for certain ... if you think about it, there is a similar change, though not quite as dramatic, in "regular" potatoes.
