“Bro, eggs and rice should have ketchup,” Tavares advised MMA Junkie. “That, like eggs and rice is like my favourite most likely all-around meal. And if I don’t have ketchup, I can’t eat it. I would really like, say I made eggs and rice for breakfast and I appeared within the fridge and there was no ketchup. I’d hop within the automotive, most likely run to 7-Eleven as a result of that’s the closest fuel station retailer to my home, and seize a pair packets of ketchup… I eat my mac and cheese with ketchup.”
Whereas consuming eggs and even macaroni and cheese with ketchup isn’t totally out of the odd stateside, it sounds just like the Hawaii native is extra keen on the condiment than the meals he’s placing it on.
