Are you a dipper or a squirter? (This is FOOD poll, people!)
« on: October 04, 2007, 10:21:29 am »
On the "Comfort Foods" thread on Bettermost People, I made the observation that there are two types of people in the world: those who squirt ketchup all over their french fries, and those who make a neat little puddle to dip them in. I, myself, am a dipper, and have raised my children to be dippers, too. What about you? Are you a dipper or a squirter? Tell us what condiment you like best to dip or squirt on the related condiment poll! Have fun, everyone!

dipper here.

Mostly of mayo. Sometimes tomato.

The only think I would squirt over my chips would be some vinigear.

Sometimes after a night out particularly, I might have chips and cheese or chips and curry sauce where they are layered over the chips but that is an exception to the rule.

I'm a dipper.  

I prefer mustard rather than ketchup on fries.

Squirter.

Raised to squirt--but then to use a fork.

Lol. I wanted to tick both, dipper and squirter, but the poll wouldn't let me. So I go as a squirter now.  ::)

Actually, it depends. With ketchup, I would rather dip, but with gravy, the fries would have to swim in it! However, I'd rather eat my fries plain than ruin them with mustard or mayonaise...  :P

On french fries, I like salt and pepper, and squirt catsup on them and eat them with my fingers. I also like mayo, and spicy brown mustard on them. Don't care much for vinegar fries though.

I agree. You know Catsup is derived from Vedic or something.

I'm not refined, just fastidious.

I eat pizza with a knife and fork, too! If I don't, I burn the roof of my mouth, and it's sore for a week, and I hate that, because I like to be prepared in case I want to use it for something other than eating. ...  8)  :laugh:

I am desperately trying to get off french fries (except for baked sweet potatoe curls drizzled with olive oil), namely because of the fat and grease. However, in my younger days, I ate french fries with mayonnaise. Usually I would get one of those little packets of mayonnaise, use a fork to pierce a tiny hole in it (or bite off the corner, to get as small a hole as possible), then decorate a mound of fries with little swirls and squiggles.

I haven't done that in forever, though. Mayonnaise isn't much more than egg whites and vinegar and not at all good for you. I've really been trying to eat healthy.

Actually whole eggs and oil, with a little bit of vinegar or lemon juice. And in moderation, mayonnaise is not going to kill you. An endless diet of fried foods is worse.

       I am a definate dipper, sometimes with a fork sometimes not..  But I like katsup on fries, and i also like blue cheese dressing on fries..and ranch dressing...always dip. 
       Pizza is a fork food too, if you dont want it all over you...I think.  Toast, bread and bacon are about the only things i eat with my hands.

I had to pop up here when I saw this topic in recent posts!  Definitely a dipper.  Ketchup on french fries - preferably with a little hot sauce mixed in!  I have seen my son dip Wendy's french fries in a Wendy's Frosty - don't laugh - salty and sweet is a great combo.  (And I have to admit he may have picked up this idea from me - a very guilty -and rare - pleasure of mine is to use softened vanilla ice cream as a dip for potato chips!)  ;D

I have even become a dipper of pancake bites into the syrup.  When they bring the little cup of syrup in the restaurant, I leave the syrup in it, and just dip.  I bet I'm eating a third the syrup that way than I used to.

I am a dipper, but gravy on french fries is good too.  Only had it a few times, but its good.  Also melted cheese on fries is good..  I'm not big into french fries, but once in a while as a side to a burger, they're good.. Dont really like burgers either.  And I usually steer clear of fast food too.

Susie, I'm afraid most of us in McDonaldland won't know what that is, so:

From Wikipedia:

A chip sandwich or sometimes in the United Kingdom, a chip butty is a sandwich made with bread (usually white and buttered) and chips, often with some sort of sauce such as tomato sauce. [1]

A football chant (sung to Annie's Song by John Denver) called "The Greasy Chip Butty Song" is popular with the supporters of Sheffield United Football Club.


Me?  I dip mostly.

Regarding mayonnaise, homemade is so  much better than store-bought.  I use just the egg yolks for a richer taste.  Occasionally I'll add a little toasted sesame oil, which adds a lot of depth, and is great on asparagus.  Yum.

Well, since you asked:

The Greasy Chip Butty Song is a football chant mainly sung by the supporters of Sheffield United football club, but has been adopted and adapted by fans of several other teams including Rotherham United and St Helens Rugby League. The originator of the song is unknown however it was first sung during Sheffield United's first match of the 1985-86 season in Division 2. This was a Blades 3-1 away win at Stoke City's Victoria Ground on 17th August 1985.

To the tune of Annie's Song by John Denver:

You fill up my senses
Like a gallon of Magnet
Like a packet of Woodbines
Like a good pinch of snuff
Like a night out in Sheffield
Like a greasy chip butty
Like Sheffield United
Come fill me again....
Na Na Na Naa Naa Naaaaa, ooo!
To a native of Sheffield the words are probably self explanatory; the words celebrate the many pleasures that can be had in Sheffield, culminating in the target of the fan's adoration, Sheffield United.

Magnet refers to John Smith's Magnet, a beer once widely available in Sheffield. Some people claim that the second line is really Like a gallon of maggots. Maggots are obtained from fishing tackle outlets in denominations of imperial pints and hence this version would not be unreasonable, as fishing is popular in the region and hence a gallon of maggots would mean a good day out fishing.

Woodbines refers nostalgically to a once popular brand of strong cigarette.

Snuff is ground tobacco for sniffing up the nose.

A Greasy chip butty can be purchased in any of the many local fish and chip shops. Butty is a slang word for sandwich, so a chip butty is simply a sandwich where the filling is chips, ideally greasy and sprinkled with salt and vinegar. Generally, a white sandwich bap will be used for the bread. In Sheffield, these are simply known as Breadcakes.

The song itself is a plaintive rally-cry by the fans of Sheffield United. It is usually heard on commencement of the home games played at 'beautiful' downtown Bramall Lane, the home of the club, and sporadically throughout away matches.

Ah, those crazy Brits. First it's mushy peas, now it's french-fry sandwiches.  ;D

I guess it took a Yank to come up with something sensible, like deep-fried Oreos.  :laugh:  :laugh:  :laugh:

They look different from the deep-fried Oreos they had at the Renfaire I went to last month. The ones at the faire were completely coated so that after they were fried, they almost looked like Nilla wafers.

(No, I didn't try them. ...  :P )

For some reason a french fry sandwich sounds pretty good.  :D

Stack some french fies on a bun and squirt some catsup and mustard on there. I'll give it a  try sometimes. I've been surprised before. This makes me think of Melissa's cucumber and butter sandwich.  :)

I told Melissa the next time I make one, I'll probably put some lettuce and tomato on it; kind of like a vegetarian submarine sandwich.  :D

Back to the original french fries question....


I like my french fries with catsup and lots of salt. I salt the french fries, AND the catsup!  :laugh:

Nothing better in the whole wide world than salty french fries and pop corn.  :D

And I mix catsup and mayonnaise together and put it on my hamburgers. My Grandpa taught me that one.

I guess you can squirt and dip at the same time. With a plastic fork of course. Only mayonaise. Hmmmm :)

I did! I read the question without reading your first post and I had to answer that I had no idea what you were talking about. I've read the whole thread now and now, I can't decide. LOL

But, honestly, the things people put on their fries.  :o Mustard? Vinegar? Melted cheese.... :o  :o

Enjoy the best pommes frites (or 'frietjes' as we say here in Belgium) in New York. And they have some very exotic and very unbelgian sauces to go with them, like Vietnamese pineapple mayo.  :)

All this french fry talk gave me a craving so my daughter and I took an excursion to Duck Fat. It was worth the trip! I posted a few details over on my blog, "From the World International Headquarters." Enjoy!
