My buddy does this and said he learned it from his great grandpa from Ville Platte. I tried it last night at his house and can't say that I hated it. I like it more than potato salad, which I have never understood.

Ketchup and mustard (in potato salad) are full of vinegar. Most of us that want that little bit of acidity use a Louisiana hot sauce.

Tomato and gumbo is a big No-No.

I thought the same thing, but the shite didn't taste bad. Added some sweetness. My world does not make sense right now

You both should have your Louisiana citizenship revoked.

Should probably keep these kinds of heretical, weird admissions to yourself.

I lost the ability to care about what people think of me a looong time ago.

I'm open minded and I'll try anything but if this culinary pro-tip ruins my bowl of gumbo I'm coming after you.

I’d take a bite out of your bowl to try it, but I’m not ruining my bowl with it.
