Oh, nonono, not on a proper hot dog! Ketchup and mustard, always, I meant in this particular scenario - if that white stuff is mayo, then the contraption's too acidic. Cream cheese would offer a bit of base.
Pfft. Ketchup? What are you, five?
Heeey, what's wrong with ketchup?🥺
Nothing… if you’re five.
And if I'm not?
Is there really a place where ketchup is out? I usually put most the things on when there's a topping station but I've never seen cream cheese offered. (Guess I'm overdue for a Seattle visit)

There is something especially funny about the Chicago chef in the article going on and on about the "natural taste" of a hotdog.
I love the smell of intestines in the morning
Tomatoes?! Sweet, fancy Moses! Okay, I get it, ketchup (supposedly made from tomatoes) would be a redundancy.
A proper hot dog where I'm sitting could include bacon wrapping, minced bermuda onions, mayo, mustard, ketchup on a folded piece of bread. There are additional side options, of course.
Edit: I misread that. You're clearly saying ketchup and mustard always.
I initially interpreted the lot as a "would," not a "could," and I thought it sounds good, but very heavy:))
I agree with the lot, but... not all at once:))) And, yeah, ketchup and mustard are my main go-tos. Ketchup and mayo when things are... eggy, I guess.
To each their own, but I'm with the other guy on the ketchup thing.
Unless they've got Tabasco sauce. Drown the ketchup in Tabasco, and it's good on fries.
But never on a hot dog.
