    Pasta 

    The different types of pasta taste different because of their thickness and texture, which influences sauce absorption. Ribbed ones absorb more sauce than smooth ones. Each shape and texture serves a specific purpose.

    Tomato Ketchup 

    Tomato ketchup is most commonly used as a condiment on hot, fried, or greasy dishes such as french fries and other potato dishes, hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken tenders, hot sandwiches, meat pies, cooked eggs, and grilled or fried meat.
