THEN shoot anyone who adds any kind of condiment.

You'd kill people over suaerkraut?

I can see catsup as an acceptable motive, but sauerkraut?

I've been in some very 'nice' resturants and have seen people put ketchup on a filet mignon!

Heinz? Well, that's O.K then

frankly, what would a Brit even consider as a 'brat'?

I suspect what many of us would call a "hot dog" might apply - you might have to remove all the seasoning, use ground up testicles and intestine liner, probably replace the casing with ballon material..... I suspect ketchup would be too spicy, perhaps a nice flour paste or wall spackel would do it.....then boiled, and served a bed of wet shredded newpapers...... hard to tell - but that sounds about right. Maybe boil it a second time

the 'gold standard' of ketchup

There's something just wrong about that phrase.

It is pretty hilarious (some of their interpretations); from my personal experience. I'm not usually one to stereotype, but I spent a school year over there in the early 80's and some of the faire was downright bizarre.

I ordered a hamburger in Newcastle. I got an actual slice of ham (pretty thick and low quality) on a bun, served with brown gravy (tasted like beef) as the only condiment. It came with what we in the US call fries, which was a nice surprise - but they had spilled the brown gravy-like substance on them too! So the hamburger basket turned out to be a bun, slice of ham, french fries, and brown goo over it all. I thought "Sheesh, no wonder they have a lower rate of obesity! Who on Earth would eat enough of this to actually gain weight?"

Now that I think about it, British cuisine (would that combination of terms get me in trouble?), seems an attempt to make every entree appear as Shepherd's Pie. Even the breakfast stuff was brown, bland, and gooey.

There's a reason for this. An English friend said to me, I kid you not, "There are two tastes, sweet and savoury". I said "Well no wonder English food is so bad, you only got one of the four basic tastes right."

That said, the English do make pretty kickass breakfasts.

Yes, English do make pretty good breakfasts.
They are a pretty tasty lunch and dinner too.
