That should have been a link to the picture, not the actual picture.

Dan's oldest put a tomato slice on a grilled cheese sandwich.   It is the only time I ever swore at her.

Ketchup is an essential food group.  If not used directly, it makes for a fine ingredient in sauces.

For my cocktail sauce:  Ketchup + worchester + fresh horseradish + a bit of hot sauce + Old Bay

For my fries:  ketchup + mayo

I do that all the time.  I also use bacon.

Peanut butter, mayonnaise, and a slice of American cheese.  That’s my personal fave that freaks the family out.

I mix chocolate syrup into my bottled water sometimes.

Bullshit.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again:  It's a Steak, not a Pizza, it doesn't need "Toppings."  That's why they're called Sides.

Bourbon is NOT a real whiskey. Blended Scotch is a chimera of real whiskey.

Either Irish or single malt Scotch is real whiskey.

And if you pollute it with water, that also includes ice, you are simply a heathen who must be educated.

Don't ruin my whiskey with ice! I'm not a bloody American!

Gina Marie might have a patent on this gif, but....

Bourbon is NOT a real whiskey.

Because it is a variant of the original whiskey, it is not a whiskey?   If that's the case, then all craft beers are not real beer.

Scotch is whiskey made in Scotland.
Whisky is whisky made in Ireland.
Bourbon is whiskey made in the US, whose mash must contain at least 51% corn.
Canadian whisky must contain 51% rye.

Blended Scotch is a chimera of real whiskey.

You're mixing two (real) whiskey's to create a variant.   So if you take (real) whiskey and a (real) whiskey and mix them together, it's no longer whiskey?

Either Irish or single malt Scotch is real whiskey.

We have a single malt snob in our midst.

And if you pollute it with water, that also includes ice, you are simply a heathen who must be educated.

Agree for the most part.

A splash of water? Criminal!
A few droplets of water?   I'll allow it.  It opens up the flavors.  And you'll be hard pressed to find any expert tasters that do not put a few droplets in their glass. Scotch, Irish Whisky, or (the whiskey that you say is not real whiskey) Bourbon.

If someone wants an 'on the rocks' poured at my house, they get bottom shelf bourbon, or 'bsb', I'll say to Dan if he's pouring for someone, even his boss, which was the case during the holidays.  Same for the person that wants to mix my Blanton's, Woodford Reserve or Booker's with coke.  Nuh-uh, not in my house.  That is a crime.

The only thing I have ever mixed with my bourbon....
Mint leaves
Superfine sugar
Selzer Water

Only on KY Derby Sunday will MintJulie drink a MintJulep.

Bourbon is NOT a real whiskey.

Bourbon is whiskey made in the US, whose mash must contain at least 51% corn.

It's much more complicated than that.

Bourbon, i.e. bourbon whiskey, is a type of American whiskey that's made primarily from corn -- at least 51% corn. This form of whiskey was first made in Kentucky, by immigrants or descendants of immigrants from Ireland and Scotland. It is usually labeled as "Bourbon Whiskey," and Kentuckians jealously insist that theirs is the only "real" bourbon produced in the U.S.

Jack Daniels, easily the most famous whiskey made in the U.S., is not bourbon whiskey (a fact that Kentuckians love to point out). But Jack Daniels has never claimed it's bourbon, and from the first bottle, it has labeled itself as "Tennessee Whiskey." It's made from equal parts of three grains: Corn, rye, and barley.
 
Fun Fact #1: The word "whiskey" derives from the Irish word "usquebaugh," which means "water of life." Can't disagree with that!

Fun Fact #2: The Jack Daniels distillery is located in Lynchburg, TN, the same place it has always been since Jack Daniels produced his first bottle in 1884. Lynchburg is located in a dry country, which means that Jack Daniels whiskey cannot be sold in both the city and county where it is produced.

Coke may never, ever, be mixed with whiskey. Not ever. And under no circumstances.

And you're right: When I toured the Jack Daniels distillery, a guy working in the distilling room (which smells absolutely heavenly) told us that when he drinks Jack Daniels, he drinks it neat with a tiny splash of water.

I usually drink it neat, straight up. But I will, on occasion, add one small ice cube.

[Jed_]

On Memorial Day I bought an ice cube tray that makes those big ice cubes that don’t melt so fast and dilute your whiskey.  I used to always drink it neat, but I find I like it chilled when the weather is warm (just don’t like it diluted).  I’d put a bottle in the freezer like I do my Polish potato vodka, but putting whiskey in the freezer just somehow seems wrong?
