I saw a Japanese indy film called "Tampopo." I guess you could say it was
about life in a bowl of noodles. Anyway, in one scene an omelet is expertly
made, French style, slit open and topped with rice and ketchup that had been
tossed in a skillet. Sounded awful, but I made one and it was pretty good.

Then there are the classic egg sandwiches which wouldn't be complete without
ketchup.
