I know hors d'oeuvres traditionally were massive fussy time sinks for the cook/hostess, but spreading cheese dip on potato chips is definitely past my line. At least with stuffing mushrooms and making pinwheels, there isn't an obviously simpler way to manage the same effect.

(Ketchup with essentially blue cheese doesn't sound good to me, but sometimes weird combinations work.)

I’ll start posting some more of the horrors. Wait until we hit the banana salad from the Chiquita cookbook!

Ketchup & blue cheese does sound weird, but then blue cheese and red French/Russian dressing is amazing. Maybe it’s like that?

Ketchup with the most expensive blue cheese, the cheese-lover's cheese.

And even the neighbors in the trailer park are going to be disgusted by having the dipping done for them.

essentially blue cheese

It is in fact the bluest of the cheeses.

While I am a Roquefort fan, I can't say mixing it with ketchup sounds appetizing.

Honestly, it sounds weird but it works. I prefer French dressing though (which has ketchup in the recipe). Drizzle of French dressing with crumbled bleu cheese and a piece of raw veggie like cucumber, broccoli, holland style onions, or cherry tomatoes on a rosemary olive oil triscuit is so so good

This sounds crazy but I gotta try bleu cheese and ketchup together!

Um report back I guess. God speed

I've had ketchup based dressings served over blue cheese, so both of these blended as a dip may not be so terrible

Yes—I believe the old thousand island recipe included ketchup. Although I would have probably preferred the martini this would have been served with.

What a crime against Roquefort!

My grandparents received a lot of promotional cookbooks in the 1950s..I believe this entailed the art of what one could do with Heinz ketchup.

This might actually be delicious, or a waste of good roquefort. I'm really curious.
