Do you consider sour cream to be a lower class and juvenile condiment?

Recently was at a pizza place, where we had a couple pies on the table. One was a hot honey pepperoni, with ranch. I must confess, it was delicious! That said, I'm not requesting Hidden Valley Ranch everytime i eat pizza now.

For the record, i rarely eat fries, but do like them with ketchup. If we are being snotty about food, fries are probably "low class." Not because they are bad- they're pretty great, but becaise they are so bad for you. So if you eat fries, what's the harm in ketchup?

What the hell are you talking about. There is nothing wrong with eating potatoes. I air fry mine and it's perfectly fine. Lots of ketchup on them too.

Sheesh…taking it a little personally

Really not. Just correcting the misinformation.

I will say that as an adult I can’t eat ketchup or ranch dressing. They do seem like kid things to me. I also would think it’s weird if an adult was drinking apple juice with dinner.

What do you eat with your french fries?

I don’t eat fries often but when I do it’s either plain or with chipotle mayo.

Not mayo! Even worse than the low class ketchup according to some. The chipotle doesn't class it up, sorry PP.

The French use mayo as well, but there's probably an exception when you are on The Continent.

It sounds fancy when a French person says it so the rubes probably think it's haute cuisine. But pretend to gag at the mere mention of it in the US.

Aioli is not the same as mayo. Mayo is almost exclusively some junk oil and eggs. Aioli is whipped olive oil and garlic, no eggs.

By law?

I had sour cream on my lunch today - leftover rice & black beans with some taco spiced chicken. Sour cream is probably my favorite condiment as I don't often have ketchup and don't like mustard. We do have creme fraiche on hand most of the time but that doesn't really go with leftover taco ingredients.

Maybe I am just lower class at heart, although I did go to a Big 3 DC school and Ivy League college. I don't recall signing a pledge not to eat sour cream when applying to those schools.

I love a dollop of sour cream on certain soups (borscht but also stews, chili, etc). Ranch doesn't really appeal to me, I make my own poppyseed dressing at home. Sour cream is also useful if Mexican food is really hot (spicy)--particularly if your lips are chapped.

No. Sour cream or "creme fraiche" are a big part of European cuisine. You are an American dolt OP.

A bit. Just use plain yogurt for heaven's sake.

You seem to be implying that there are illegitimate condiments. What would those be?

I think sour cream and onion potato chips, potato chip dip, putting sour cream all over your Mexican food, drowning a baked potato in cheese and sour cream are all pretty low class and/or juvenile.

Unless this is a sock puppet, there are TWO of them

No, not if you grew up on a dairy farm.

OP, these are not the details that will make someone “in the know” accept or reject you, and in fact being weird about them, or—god forbid—pointing them out in public, is the pinnacle of bad manners and is gross and embarrassing. Focusing this much on collecting the minutia so you can apply them as “rules” really, really misses the point, which is the whole package, and you will never be that if you keep fixating on this kind of stuff. We already said this in your earlier post this summer about hamburgers as well.

I would say the thread and other such attempts to elevate are desperately middle class.

I'm sure some wealthy people do consume it, but I have personally never witnessed a fit wealthy person put sour cream on food. People who go nuts with sour cream, ex. several dollops all over their nachos, are exclusively low class obese poor people.

It's not mayo, but it is a condiment.
