True, I am a live and let live guy. But on this point, my authoritarian streak comes out.

When I make sloppy joes. I dumped french fries from my diet years ago, but ketchup is a must with fries. I don’t eat burgers either….no red meat. Sorry.

My hot dog ketchup thing is like the Matrix. Freeing people’s minds from a warped world. Chicago style dogs are so much better.

I don't use it on a anything. I can't remember the last time I grabbed ketchup. By the way A1 is a much better topper to a burger than ketchup.

So Deni$ Humble is a “Soy Boy”, literally…

Yeah kind of. I cut out a lot of crap to avoid taking cholesterol drugs. I dropped cholesterol from 260 to 180 in six months.

I love red meat and junk food. But I would prefer to see my kids get married and have grandchildren.

If that makes me a soy boy, I’ll accept that label.

I've done it, yes. A1 is absolutely disgusting on anything.

A1 is a product of Kraft Foods....as someone who was employed by Kraft Foods for 13 years, the sales people used to refer to A1 as "Liquid Gold" because the margins were so high. A regular practice amongst the sales people was to ask for a bottle of it in any restaurant and be sure to dump it on the plate prior to leaving....ensuring they went through as much A1 as possible

Damn if we don't agree on the most different things.

I'll give you a mind blown job: mix A-1 and ketchup on the plate with the fries and it is better than either of the component parts. Throw a couple of dashes of hot sauce in if George likes his chicken spicy

I like that british MP sauce if a place has it

I drag a dog through the garden even when I'm at home and I do include ketchup.

How does Heinz lose naming rights in Pittsburgh?

_________________
O judgment! Thou art fled to brutish beasts,

Apparently, this Acrisure bought a company off of a Steelers board member for $400M. Then they offered way more than Heinz could even bother discussing for the naming for 15 years.

Not only that....
Kraft and Heinz were purchased separately by equity firm 3G Capital. 3G merged and gutted both of them. Company is now called Kraft / Heinz, so even if they retained the naming rights....I bet it would have been different. Bottom line....money. Is it really worth it for a big established brand name to pay all that money for naming rights? Miller wanted no part of extending the contracting in Milwaukee.

My funny Kraft story was in the late 80s early 90s. I used to visit there in Glenview for some research work. Learned about some of their developing and taste testing. Anyway was nice they had a little discount shop in the cafeteria area and visitors could get products cheap and even some never seen outside the place.

What was a pleasant surprise to me (I smoked at the time) was that Phillip Morris of all companies bought Kraft and I got cheap cartons of smokes there.

I don't think $10M a year is too extreme to keep your name on the stadium of the greatest franchise in NFL history.

I started June 2000 and in the main Kraft HQ building at Waukegan / Willow...there was still smoking sections inside the building...it was crazy.
Yes...the company stores had really good prices on their products. That lasted beyond my time there when I left in 2013. I'm thinking the stores were done when they relocated to the Aon building early 2016.

I don't like that, that's not funny.

Mix the catchup with A1 sauce, you will literally not forget the taste
