How about an Interesting as HECK thread???

LOL!  OOOookay...but does the word "finesse" really even belong in the same sentence as "ketchup"????  Could someone please pass the black truffles and truffle shaver along with the Pule.  Sheesh!

Don't confuse the substance with how it's treated. Ketchup isn't on trial here. If you've ever visited the Hearst mansion in California you will find a bottle of ketchup every few feet on that massive dining room table the elite and classy used for their expensive dinners. I'm guessing no one ever used a knife to get at the ketchup. It would have been considered extremely gauche. 

By the same token if you take an expensive piece of filet mignon and cook it until it's crisp and black, that shows a complete lack of finesse and is a bush and classless move. It can go either way.
