Cottage Cheese and Ketchup was Nixon's favorite food?
It was in that movie about Nixon and Elvis. But is it true? Do we have evidence? Was there ever an investigation?

2. Speaking of ketchup . . .
. . . I was thinking today that Whataburger's ketchup is vastly superior to the ketchup offered by other fast food restaurants.

But maybe it is just me.

B-)

3. Never been to Whataburger, but I always liked the
ketchup in glass bottles at Friendly's tasted like lemons!

8. lol mac & cheese, hamburgers and fries is it. And the fries only get
catsup (just so it doesn't feel left out) about 10% of the time.

10. The commie color is Red. People who use too much Ketchup or Casup if you
will, are commies.

11. I think it's a myth
I wish I had a link, but I read somewhere that Nixon ate cottage cheese and ketchup because he was always trying to watch his weight. Apparently, he was prone to carrying a few extra pounds. He was told cottage cheese was a good diet food, but the only way he could manage to eat it was by putting ketchup on it.

13. Cottage cheese mixed with paprika, pepper, and some dashes of hot sauce...
...is awesome. Some tortilla chips to scoop it up with is even better.

The ketchup thing, though, I just don't know....
