Here, here! A million times, here!

Ugh. It literally pains me when people do that -- especially if I've made the eggs myself with flavouring.

Not a big fan of ketchup on eggs. But Having lived in the southwest Region for 10 years (Now back in good old Detroit, MI). I have had Eggs with Salsa. It was edible, but nothing I would say was good.

Food i hate the most: LIVER AND ONIONS, maybe its because my mom didnt cook it well but the sight and smell of it make me run and hide

Sorry, I am strongly in the ketchup on eggs camp. True, if I make (you you make for me) some lightly scrambled eggs with truffle shavings and sea salt, no ketchup.

But sit me in a diner booth with a plate of scrambled eggs, home fries and bacon, and please pass the ketchup anytime.

I've never had ketchup on my eggs, nor does it sound appealing to me, but I find it hard to believe I would find it so disgusting as to be vomit-inducing. I like the smell of eggs, and I don't mind the smell of ketchup (on other things) so I don't know how the combination would somehow add up to be much worse.

I couldn't agree more. I do love scrambled eggs with Sryracha--or however it's spelled, and they look horribly similar.

The smell of ketchup is beyond gross, alone or on something else.

I always find it amusing how different people have food objections that others find tasty. Personally, I don't like ketchup on eggs (too tangy on the palate especially on something so delicate). I do like ketchup with my burger or fries.

Here's something I can't stand: corn nibblets mixed in with other foods (i.e. salsa, veggie medley, pizza topping). I like corn alone or on the cob, but i find it lends a strange sweet flavor on items that should be devoid of it. Sometimes it's used as decoration...but why scatter it randomly like that? If it's an afterthought, then what's the point? Just my weird food objection.

I like ketchup on my scrambled eggs, but just a bit. Sorry if that offends you, but you don't have to eat with me :)

I didn't join the ketchup and scrambled eggs camp until I got to college, where the eggs were barely edible without ketchup. (I was too picky to try anything else on them.)

For my foods that should be abolished list: mustard and any "secret sauces" on hamburgers or hot dogs

Ketchup on eggs is nasty. Oddly enough I do like omelettes with tomatoes in though. Go figure.

Hot sauce, like sriracha, can be tasty on scrambled eggs.

Aww, I feel like there is not enough representation for ketchup on eggs on this post so I'll say I like it. I'm kind of a ketchup person though. My brother is a shoyu person. I don't agree with putting a TON of it on though, just enough or on the side to dip. I went out with a guy once who loved ketchup WAY more than me. He would SLATHER it on everything! He would practically cover his steak with ketchup as though he were icing a cake. That's where I draw the line.

I'm sorry that the smell is so horrible to you. Maybe you should ask your mom about if you really did get sick from it once? Food aversions start pretty easily.

I'll eat ketchup on eggs but only in two situations: breakfast skillet (somehow the addition of potatoes requires ketchup for flavor) and ome-rice.

I just wanted to add that I LOVE ketchup, especially heinz. I have been known to eat a few fries with my ketchup on occasion. And I drown my burgers in it. It's only the egg/ketchup combo that freaks me out. Yes, I know it's weird to some folks. But the intensity of my dislike for that smell is incredible.

I do think that salsa, Sriracha, crushed or chopped fresh tomatoes, sauteed tomatoes, are great with eggs.

The only things that I can think of, that truly make me gag, are canned corn beef hash, and canned soup.

Eggs and Ketchup? Occassionally!
Cold, canned pasta? Oh yes!

But don't you ever, ever come near me with organ meats. That's just plain nasty, and there's no way you could fix them to change my mind. I'm more likely to eat crawfish and frog legs before you'll get sweetbreads or organs near me. It's just wrong.

but I love the smell of vomit and corpses in the morning!

Ketchup is the perfect addition to scrambled and fried eggs. If you are eating fancy-pants scrambled eggs (with smoked salmon or truffles) then no ketchup. If you are having a home-cooked breakfast with ham, bacon or sausage then add ketchup! Of course, if you are having Mexican scramble or huevos, forget the ketchup and add salsa. Ketchup is also mandatory on grilled cheese sandwiches, french fries and meatloaf. I'm prepared to arm-wrestle anyone who thinks otherwise.........

Teriyaki.
The smell, the taste. Bleah!! As long as I can remember, I have never liked it. Then this year while having a conversation with my mother, I found out that she got sick eating teriyaki while she was pregnant with me. Coincidence? I think not.

Also no chitlins. If they are being cooked, I will literally leave the area.

And I totally agree with the no Ketchup with eggs.
The only way I really like ketchup is on currywurst.

I ate ketchup on my eggs as a kid, but the smell is kind of funky these days. I don't generally eat scrambled unless that's all that's there anyway. If it is, I prefer hot sauce of some kind.

In Malta I experience corn in tuna fish (along with sliced olives, olive oil, and onion) which I thought was extremely odd at first, but it turned out to be a craving before I left.

My personal gag-inducing "food-product", is anything made by Chef Boyardee. If someone even warms a bowl of Spaghetti-O's in a house, I can't go inside until the smell subsides. Guts no problem, rotten fish, no problem, the dump, no problem, spaghetti-O's, I lose it.
