I mean, really. Why? One ketchup packet handles two french fries, maybe three. If I'm at McDonald's I have to grab a dozen packets to cover a large order of fries, and it makes me feel like a heel to do it.
And it's not even efficient. There's so little ketchup in each packet that 10 percent ends up on the packet where I tore it open due to surface tension or non-Newtonian flow or some other scientific principle. Who designed these things?
Is the problem me? Do I use too much ketchup? Or is the problem a society that makes me a villain for using ketchup?

In Amsterdam, people use mayonnaise instead of ketchup for McDonald's fries.

Think that's it.
In reality, I only use ketchup on fries if the fries aren't very good. Just a little salt is enough for me, most of the time.
My favorite fry condiment has always been cheese sauce.

When I was in Copenhagen a few years ago people were walking around eating fries with mayo.
