I’ll start: I tried to move a bookshelf while drunk about 6 years ago and tore a tendon in my shoulder pretty damn good. It still bothers me sometimes if I move it wrong or sleep on it wrong.

    Ketchup =/= tomato sauce.

    Ketchup is mostly water and sugar.

      Ahh fair fair. That’s my aussie ignorance showing.

      Does ketchup taste like tomato sauce on a hotdog then?

      I’ve always assumed Ketchup was the Americanism for tomato sauce.

        As an American who has spent time in Oz, I can clarify. In Oz, what you call tomato sauce is what we call ketchup/catsup. In the US, tomato sauce is either the primary ingredient in things like spaghetti sauce, or it can be used to differentiate a red spaghetti sauce from something like an alfredo sauce.

        Source: asked if I wanted tomato sauce at Macca’s.

        Nah mate you’re right, we just use different names. Like how they call jam jelly.

          Jam and jelly are two different things. Jam is made with actual fruit chunks (usually crushed or pureed), whereas jelly is made with just the fruit juice.

            Nah jam is the stuff you spread on toast or a roast.

            Jelly is the wobbly gelatinous blob that Americans call “jell-o”.

      In Australia we call ketchup tomato sauce. Tomato paste is probably what you’re thinking of.

      If I heard ketchup I’d probably think of kecap manis/sweet soy sauce firstly.
