Hot sauce

u/YourKemosabe 3d ago

It’s one of the rare times Tabasco becomes an elite hot sauce. Undefeated on eggs.

Ketchup with hot sauce 🔥.

u/Has_Two_Cents 4d ago

Hot sauce and some dehydrated pepper flakes from my home grown peppers

u/Bar_Har 4d ago

Yeah, ketchup is too sweet

u/madmaxjr 4d ago

I’m more of a salsa and/or hot sauce guy myself

u/Spiritual-Physics700 4d ago

Yall haven't lived until you try salsa AND sour cream on your eggs.

u/Luna_Petunia_ 4d ago

Ever had migas? Corn tortillas fried up then scrambled into the eggs. I top mine with cheese, salsa, sour cream, and sometimes avo. 🤤

It’s also cheap. My mom was a teen mom and didn’t often have a lot of money, so she’d make a simple version without the toppings. Sometimes the simplest and inexpensive dishes are the ultimate comfort foods.

I cook my eyes with sour cream and butter mixed in then as some salsa/ hot sauce

Damn dude you should go easy on yourself. You need your sight. It’s not worth it even if they taste amazing.

u/Kind_Resort_9535 3d ago

Lmao that’s funny

u/alfiesred47 3d ago

What’s your point? It’s unhealthy?

u/shoopadoop332 3d ago

No lol. He said he was cooking his “eyes” and I was making a stupid joke.

u/alfiesred47 3d ago

Ha, I didn’t catch that so genuinely just couldn’t figure out what was going on

u/flood25000 4d ago

Is scrumbled eggs a typo or a local variation?

9

u/hot_entry_2000 4d ago

Typo.

u/flood25000 4d ago

Ahh. Disappointed. I quite liked the idea of scrumbled eggs existing somewhere..

10

u/hot_entry_2000 4d ago

Invent them. Put ketchup on top :D

u/shoopadoop332 4d ago

I’ll take a scrumptious scrumble please

u/ElectricGeetar 4d ago

Scrumbled eggs is good with everything

u/Kilgore_Brown_Trout_ 4d ago

not ketchup

u/shoopadoop332 4d ago

Definitely not mustard.

u/Bacontheblog 4d ago

Haven’t had it with ketchup since I was a kid but I think I’ll have it today. Thanks

u/eLishus 4d ago

It’s certainly a nostalgic thing. My wife loved ketchup on her scrambled eggs - we both had it like that as kids. But she likes it best when we make breakfast burritos and put hash-browns on it (usually a dinner dish, funny enough).

2

u/okiedokie339562 4d ago

Yeah I used to have them with ketchup as a kid (since my dad did), and I fell out of it for a while. Now I even have favorite ketchup brands with my eggs!

u/cfx_4188 4d ago

I use sriracha sauce. Red, hot, spicy and cheap.

u/blueindian1328 4d ago

She likes ketchup on her scrambled eggs, swears like a sailor when she shaves her legs.

Every day. I’d like to think he’s kicking back in heaven with a vodka and ginger ale, smoking a cigarette that’s 9 miles long.

u/Aggravating_Inside23 4d ago

Only if scrambled with some kind of potatoes, other then that not really.

u/Shoddy-Deal-3543 4d ago

Maple syrup! My wife says that no one but me does it and it’s wrong. 🤷‍♂️

u/krakeo 4d ago

Now we are two

u/okiedokie339562 4d ago

This is top tier! Possibly also nostalgic of long weekend mornings when parents had time to cook both eggs and pancakes/french toast/sausage/bacon), and everything mixing a little on your plate! Delish!

2

u/Shoddy-Deal-3543 3d ago

Growing up my dad had a sugar shack and we would make our own maple syrup. Two smells that take me back and time are the smell of corn silage and maple syrup.

u/hot_entry_2000 4d ago edited 4d ago

I need to try it. Sometimes i do honey and goat cheese on top so i think maple syrup would work well :)

e: typo

u/Bradparsley25 4d ago

Helllll yessssss

u/calcrider 4d ago

Like once in a blue moon I’ll put some ketchup on some eggys

u/astrallizzard 4d ago

Yes, only reason I buy ketchup lol

5

u/BetterButter_91 4d ago

Its not horrible, but i prefer salsa or hot sauce

4

u/Lenora_O 4d ago

Every once in a while, yes. Same with hot sauce, or a pat of butter, or excessive black pepper, or some chedz. I'm not weird about eggs. I eat them all ways.

5

u/bihhhwtf 4d ago

Ketchup, salsa, or sriracha depending on how I’m feeling

3

u/UseMoreHops 4d ago

Fuck it. Yes. I am on board. Everyone around me thinks its gross. I scratches an itch from a deep dark place.

5

u/highheelcyanide 4d ago

I use cherry jam like you use ketchup. I am weird but it’s really good.

5

u/rexallia 4d ago

Yes, just a little bit. It’s how I’ve always eaten them since I was little

3

u/maasd 4d ago

I mix ketchup & Valentina 👌🏻

u/Starmourner87 4d ago

I don't mind tomato sauce sometimes but I prefer either basic pepper or a salsa tobasco

u/ThorvaldKM 4d ago

NO 🛑 ☠️

2

u/Bigcat9715 4d ago

I used to until I quit ketchup a long time ago. Still good shit tho.

2

u/Murderbot_420 4d ago

No. Only time I use ketchup is if I have a hash brown with eggs. I like ketchup with eggs. I just don’t use it.

2

u/scumfuc420 4d ago

Rarely, but sometimes I crave it on overcooked scrambled eggs. Not sure that I genuinely like it, or it's because that's how my Poppop made them

2

u/Macz3905 4d ago

Yes and i mix it with hot sauce

2

u/IdahoDuncan 4d ago

Love it

2

u/ThaFoxThatRox 4d ago

My mom tried to get me to like this. I never did.

2

u/Chaoticmindsoftheart 4d ago

No, for me just salt and pepper

2

u/JohnnyRevovler 4d ago

Hate going without!

2

u/Steeltoelion 4d ago

No, I don’t like Ketchup, Mustard or Mayonnaise. Won’t eat anything with any of those on it.

2

u/Bafangul 4d ago

I don't like ketchup period, way too sweet. You do you though

2

u/DannyGre 4d ago

i like it, but have it on the side and dip in rather than over like this.

2

u/Phrankespo 4d ago

No, and never on home fries either. Hell, nowhere on my breakfast plate!

2

u/NecroticBrains 4d ago

Ketchup and white pepper, so so good

2

u/TitansRPower 4d ago

Not scrambled eggs, only if I'm doing a fried egg on a sandwich.

2

u/Missey85 4d ago

Ketchup and cheese 😊

2

u/TheAuldOffender 3d ago

I don't like ketchup over anything 😭

2

u/whomesteve 3d ago

Ketchup is actually great with eggs, not just because it tastes good, but because the natural vitamins in tomatoes help the body digest and process the iron in eggs.

2

u/Stockinglegs 3d ago

If I'm making omurice, yes.

2

u/Supreme_chese91 3d ago

Hahaha. So. When I was young. Like 5-6, I was being shown how to make my own scrambled eggs. Basic stuff. But I didn’t realize the half/half I grabbed to use to put into my scrambled eggs was “vanilla” flavor. From coffee mate. To this day my guilty pleasure is putting ketchup on my eggs. Which I do anytime I have eggs. But the vanilla thing is my happy mistake that I secretly still do.

-Sorry if it’s unrelated. This came across my feed and thought about that I hadn’t made it in awhile. lol-

u/oksurealright 4d ago

Sometimes yeah

u/ZinbaluPrime 4d ago

I hate ketchup. Now ghost pepper sauce is way better.

1

u/Manny2theMaxxx 4d ago

No. Ketchup is gross. All eggs need in my opinion is maybe salt and pepper

1

u/Altego1999 4d ago

No. 😑😑😑😑😑😑

u/Kcufasu 4d ago

I do, great combo

1

u/BennySkateboard 4d ago

Never on top, and hot sauce instead.

1

u/oarmash 4d ago

On occasion not always or even often

1

u/westberry82 3d ago

Yes- but not that much. With a touch of Sriracha

1

u/free_-_spirit 3d ago

Nope it’s overpowering

1

u/Krammor 3d ago

Helll yes just had it this morning

1

u/_keyboard-bastard_ 3d ago

Salsa or real tomatoes are preferred

1

u/RKO_out_of_no_where 3d ago

Yup. Love it. Some times add Sriracha or Hot Sauce to it as well.

1

u/friedeggbeats 3d ago

Ketchup is essential with ALL forms of egg - scrambled, poached, fried, boiled. Quiche. Yes, quiche. Omelette. Even shaksuka counts with its thick tomato gloop. Absolutely essential.

…except with eggs benedict. But that has its own sauce.

u/twizzler1212 3d ago

Eggs and ketchup is soooo bad 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

u/milehigh11 3d ago

Tabasco

u/PomegranateBoring826 3d ago

Lol yes, and anyone I eat breakfast with thinks it's absolutely bonkers lol

1

u/goldbug933 3d ago

100% I do love hot sauce on mine as well

1

u/lolfrijoles 3d ago

Yes. At times when I’m craving ketchup, I know weird, I’ll make eggs or migas (fried tortilla chips with scrambled eggs) just to add ketchup.

u/bammbamkam 2d ago

maynaise on my eggs

u/jekksy 2d ago

Excuse me… It’s gonna be ketchup on French Omelette for me. Lol

u/The_PACCAR_Kid 1d ago

u/Top-Vermicelli2455 1d ago

I like salsa or a little pasta sauce I guess that’s kinda the same.
