Splorch.
I don’t know about you, but I *love* this strip. Powree drew the last panel just as I envisioned it in my head.
- Luna: We had to flee when the Red Devils lost control of our street to the White Brotherhood.
- Sandra: The White Brotherhood? There’s a group of neo-Nazis in Camden??
- Luna: No, it’s a “regular” gang.
- Sandra: And they call themselves White Brotherhood??
- Luna: Many myths and legends surround their name…
- Gang leader: Stop defiling my superior mayo with your impure ketchup, degenerate punk!

@ Mechwarrior:
All I know is that every time I have asked for fry sauce outside of Utah I get looked at like you want what now? – To be fair I haven’t been in all 50 states so limited sample size but yeah. I have also seen it made with buttermilk or lemon juice added in. There are a lot of variants.
@ Marissa:
You’re a monster
@ Keith:
1v1 me m8
Would have been more ironic if the white bro’hood were a bunch of black guys with a thing for mayo.

It’s actually the original way of eating them. And quite a lot of people still enjoy it. Including me, although I don’t say no to tomato ketchup either. Or even a mix of the two. Basically depending on what I’m in the mood for. And if they’re the sidedish, what I’m eating the chips with.
I’ve also seen just with salt and black pepper, with vinegar (mostly British I think), with barbeque sauce, with cocktail sauce, with gravy…

“Original”?
Since the origins of the “french fry” are unknown, I suspect the original condiment used on them is, also, unknown.
I like mine with mustard or ground horseradish. My grand dad always ate them with sugar.
I too was about to comment with disgust on the use of mayo, but after all the comments I guess that a large number of people like it.
I like mixing ketchup and sriracha, or if that is unavailable, Tabasco. My mom like dipping hers in mayo. And milkshakes.
@ NotASpy:
I thought they were yakuza…
Gang names are based off sauce.
You learn something new everyday.
So they would be musicians then?
@ discipleofhoid:
Mayo & Ketchup are the primary ingredients in French Dressing.
You’d just need to add a bit of Oil & Vinegar to it.

@ discipleofhoid:

1 teaspoon vinegar
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt

“How about some gravy and cheese curds, then?”
“Poutine? Oh, DASS it, motherf***er.” *chi-CHIK*
@ Mechwarrior:
And why should we listen to an Atlas?
“Things went to hell once the Yellow Menace rolled in. Mustard everywhere…”
I’m with the Red Devils. White glop on my fries? It’s ON, bro!
Calling ketchup “red devil”, what a shame. True red devil is chili sauce!
I only have one thing to say. Best gang war EVER!!
Are there going to be any new protagonists any time soon? Larissa-cloud-sandra-woo gets boring after a few years…

They’re not. There are arguments about the name “french fries”, but the origins of the dish itself are rather well known and go back to 17th or 18th century southern Belgium. Or possibly northern France, maybe both. The latter wouldn’t be surprising, the two mentioned regions are direct neighbours and somewhat intertwined culturally. Written documents describing the practice do exist in both from about the same time (second half of the 18th century). So it’s hard to pinpoint the actual first date and location. But it can be placed as precise as about fifty to a hundred years in date and a region with a few hundred kilometers diameter in location.
Granted, both dish and condiment have evolved further since then. And if you look at Belgium today, for example, there are at least half to a full dozen of different sauces that are usually served with fries.
Really Good fries don’t need anything but a little Salt.
I was rasied to understand that Ketchup is what you use to cover up the flavor of Bad Cooking.
My Mother was a very Good cook, so we didn’t Use Ketchup in our house.
Ketchup, mayonnaise and mustard are supposed to cover up taste, which is why you get them with hot dogs. It’s also why you should never put them on anything besides sausages and especially not on salads.
@ Poko:
called Pommes, Rot/Weiss Schranke
@ discipleofhoid:
Fry sauce exists in Oregon too. Personally, I like good ol’ Ketchup better.
@ Dan:
Are you from Utah? o.o
Where does Sandra and woo take place? Because the only Camden I know off is in England but a lot of other things within the woonuverse aren’t English.
@ Jerry:
Well the origins of Fry sauce are a bit murky but the sauce is from Utah invented by supposedly in either an Arctic Circle, Crown Burgers or The Training table. However each of those places have their own take on the idea. Between the three the first two are the most like what most people recognize when they think of Fry Sauce. The Training Table version uses their Hickory Sauce instead of Ketchup and is quite good.
PS most recipes of Fry Sauce include Sweet Pickle juice as part of the mix.
Well I hate ketchup… but I also hate mayo unless it’s cooked. So I dunno…
@ Greenwood Goat:
You have postcode gangs?!?
I spent so long trying to find out which one’s the White Brotherhood and which one’s the Red Devils.
…F*** fry sauce.
