ive seen this more than once, so i guess there must be some truth in it. why is ketchup considered for kids ? is it some old marketing campaign that stuck on people minds ? and what is the condiment for adults ?

Ketchup is full of sugar.
As for condiments for adults, it depends on what you are eating.
A hotdog, I like mustard and onions. Sandwiches (meat/cheese) mayo and mustard. Hamburger, mayo, mustard , onions and dill pickles.

Ketchup is most often associated with fast food in the US and I'd say a good half or more of the fast food commercials are geared at kids. It mostly comes down to marketing tactics. It's the same dynamic behind why most beer commercials in the US are aimed at men rather than women.

Interesting. As kids, Mom would make cinnamon toast. Buttered toast, with a cinnamon and sugar mix.
It was a treat.

pretty sure blade thing, brazilians are not as fan of cinammon unless its sweeties, like cake (Banana and cinnamon) or what we call here as rain little cakes or wind little cakes, wich is basically fried dough with cinamon and sometimes some sweet filler or nothing hence the wind part of the name https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolinho_de_chuva

Yup, I would definitely eat that! Hmmm..maybe even dip those in sweetened condensed milk.

i thought america didnt have condensed milk it was really hard to find it in europe (mainly portugal though), we use it a lot here in brazil, for cakes and sweets and it has to be Leite Moça brand, all others just....urk, the end result doesnt turn the same

We have new Greek Bakery near by. They makes these things called Loukoumades. They are sprinkled with cinnamon. Absolutely delicious. They only make them on Saturdays, which probably a good thing.

You'll find it in most US supermarkets but I will also say that it is more commonly used by the Latino community in South Florida. For Europe I would think you could find it in Spain in addition to Portugal.

I love condensed milk on my porridge. It's always available here in the UK. I don't buy it much because sometimes I just spoon it out of the tin straight down my gob.

Ha! I am also a former member of that club. Used to do that quite often well into my teenage years.

I saw a reference to drinking condensed milk in Batman Begins and never understood it, but after reading stuff here, I guess it's a thing.
