I think they like Spam sushi over there, too.

Yes, a wahine is a Hawaiian woman or in slang, a surfer. We love Spam musubi. I myself am not a fan. My people eat some bad food.

My nutty Hawaiian relatives put ketchup on their rice. WTF! OMG! ROFL! EWW!

Seriously, ketchup on rice??

I'm Asian, and would never (ever) consider doing anything like that!

I can't say I've ever given this much thought. I'm for eating your hot dogs however you like, whether or not that includes a tomato-based condiment.

I eat a half cup of that and my hands and feet swell from all the sodium. I am a disgrace to my people.

I never heard anything about ketchup or anything else being un-American on a hot dog until ironically a very un-American politician tried to dictate what is and isn't American.

I have though that diehard ketchup vs mustard fans disagree on which is the best condiment in general.

No monopoly there. I grew up in the Midwest. Miracle Whip, Wonder bread, any "salad" featuring Jell-O...

And don't forget the abomination called Dayton Dip, a slimy mass of Velveeta cheese, crumbled sausage, and Worcestershire sauce kept warm in a crock pot found at many a holiday party buffet. It looks like vomit, but it's kind of addictive. I feel such shame in admitting that.
