I already knew that would be the answer. You guys serve enough ketchup disguised as salsa with that imitation Mexican foodRonv69 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 25, 2023 9:14 pmFor the fries and onion rings.

Why no ketchup on a burger in TX?

It was Aunt Madelyn, my mother's mother's sister, who fed us this culinary treat.
One of the older kids pronounced Madelyn as Mah-new when they were a baby and it stuck with the rest of us. As we grew older we would follow the adults in calling her Aunt Madley.
Mah-new make a tray of butter and sugar sandwiches and bring them out to us. We'd sit around her and she'd tell us about the farm, the land, who did what, when and where etc. I was mesmerized.
She was married to Papa Jim the pipe smoker I talk about.
Mom's dad, my Pa, didn't smoke. He did and still does walk on water however. In my mind at least.
Thanks for bringing up a memory D!
