Patrick Mahomes has sparked fierce controversy on Thanksgiving after pouring ketchup all over his turkey dinner in a new commercial for Adidas.
The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, whose love for the tomato condiment is well documented, is seen sitting at a candle-lit table filled with popular Thanksgiving food in the ad for the sportswear giants.
'Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks, return home, see family, and meet new friends,' he says before committing what many fans insist is a cardinal sin by reaching for the ketchup.
As he squeezes it all over a turkey leg, Mahomes then adds: 'Thanksgiving, is a time to eat.'
After watching him cover his Thanksgiving dinner in ketchup, a number of fans expressed their bemusement online.
One asked in astonishment: 'Did he put ketchup on that turkey leg???'
Another simply concluded: 'Disgusting!'
'Bro ketchup on the turkey? come on man,' wrote a third.
'Aye he gotta chill on the ketchup,' said a fourth.
While one joked about Kansas City's Thanksgiving game against the Dallas Cowboys: 'Just by him doing that, the Chiefs will lose.'
Some, however, expressed support for Mahomes' bizarre methods.
'I also put ketchup on everything. Lol Must be an east Texas thing,' said one.
While another put: 'The Return of the Ketchup. lol love it PM! Go Chiefs!'

Meh. The fans need to get a life.
The other day I made my wife a beautiful egg white omelet with cheddar cheese, sautéed onion and bell pepper......first thing she did when I served it to her was put ketchup on it. SMH
I put ketchup on mashed potatoes and rice. Such a silly argument. Hope the ridiculous ketchup discussion gives the Chiefs the added incentive to beat the Cowboys.
Really, who gives a crap what anyone puts on their food, unless maybe hey are sitting at your table.
Whatever it takes to choke that turkey down. I hate turkey. My best Thanksgivings there’s no turkey. This will not be one of them, acquiescing to the toxic MIL.
I like salsa on my omelets.
Heh, I am no Patrick Mahomes fan, but I learned a long time ago that I have to overlook what people do with ketchup when making a judgement about them!
I am a very constrained ketchup person. I like it on very few things, French fries are one of them. Perhaps the only thing I can think of. I do use small amounts of it for making my own barbecue sauce as well, that kind of thing.
But I know people who use it on just about every bloody thing under the sun.
I don’t get it.
I eat food because I like the taste of it. When I eat something with ketchup...the item tastes like...ketchup. What is the point with that?
I don’t know. I’ve put ketchup on ham cheese and mushroom omelets before. Definitely on hash browns. Just made a couple of sausage and egg breakfast burritos with plenty of salsa.
For turkey dinners, lots of gravy for me.
I can’t eat fish without loading it up with ketchup.
Do people realize it is just a commercial
Ketchup on hot dogs! Mustard is disgusting.
Suggest you stick to the low sodium ketchup.....regular is loaded with it.
Try a small amount of sweet chili sauce in omelettes.
I stir fry finely chopped red & yellow peppers, onions, fresh garlic & jalapeno peppers & mushrooms, then add scrambled egg, turn down heat and cook for 5 minutes in a covered pan. Oh always add cooked ground Italian sausage to egg, it is the key ingredient for tasty omelette.
Really, who gives a crap...
Ditto
My BIL put creamy peanut butter on EVERYTHING! 🤢 That was his thing and I just watched in utter, dusgusting, amusement when we ate together.
and it worked
people are talking about it
Always acting diplomatically, I add both Ketchup and mustard to hot dogs. Then the whole is topped with chili.
I sometimes enjoy a Pal’s hotdog that is native with mustard and chili only
I put ketchup on the traditional things, like hamburgers, hot dogs (gasp!), tenderloins, and brauts.
I do not like ketchup on fries. I like BBQ Sauce. And it’s for dipping, not poured on top.
Anyone offering me a fry from their plate with ketchup on it is an immediate “no.”
Love Mexican omelets. Chorizo is a good addition too.
