If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Actually, ketchup was originally derived from a Chinese picked fish sauce called ke-tsiap. Tomatoes and sugar came later.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

It's called "ketchup".

Also called "Papa John's".

whoever thought tomato sauce should be sweet should be shot, though.

It's called "ketchup".

Ironically, the inventor of ketchup was though to have been shot only to be revealed later to have faked his own death with his new fake blood invention. Only later was the fake blood compound to be found to be tasty on french fries.

I think my purpose-driven life does not involve drugs made with red phosphorus, you know? That is what caffeine is for, and caffeinei s a lot less likely to blow up somebody's house.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Also called "Papa John's".

But they also give you peppers and garlic butter. I forgive them.

What is even happening?

I think the problem with a lot of tomato sauces is an over-zealous use of what I'm pretty sure is basil, rather than actual sugar.

My dad makes yummy beer can chicken--it's very moist, and not unlike beer batter fried chicken, which I've had lots of places. I have made beer- and wine-poached chicken, and they've both turned out great.

As for lobsters, an old boss told me that she and her husband would celebrate their anniversary by buying two lobsters, bringing them home and racing them across the kitchen floor, then the winner is the first one cooked (with the loser quickly following him).

As a lover of the stuff, I don't think there's a point at which I would ever say, "Man, too much basil!"

So I'm still going to blame the sugar, which is probably added because of the sad blandness of the tomatoes in question. Proper tomatoes are sweet enough as it is.
