No, it really does have ketchup in it apparently:

This reminds me of southern Americans calling things salads which are actually deserts.
Like the Gobi Desert?
Are you referring to things like candied sweet potatoes? Yeah, that's a salad. If it weren't there would be >no salad< and then everyone would feel guilty when it came time for cobbler.

wtf?!? a basic French dressing is oil, vinegar and Dijon mustard. don't let the French know what you've done to their vinaigrette.
ketchup, on your salad?!?
Sorry, I was being facetious. I thought that was a well known culinary joke, even if there is a grain of truth in it. Now that I think of it, it might be thousand island that is ketchup and mayo. The two were always more or less the same to me, at least the cheap Hidden Valley versions.

I find it very weird that people buy salad dressings, they take 30 seconds to make.
I had this conversation with my wife just the other day. Fact is, I can cook. Quite well, even. And I regularly make dipping sauces for dumplings or pickling sauces for veggies, etc. But for whatever reason I can't be bothered to make salad dressing, at least not routinely, (I do occasionally mix up a fresh Caesar dressing; yum).
The same argument could be made for buying canned beans instead of dry beans; or buying bread crumbs,, etc. It's all about convenience. It's perhaps the ultimate first world problem.
But I do draw the line at buying pre-cut fruit, that really is lazy as fuck.

I love French dressing but nobody has it here.
Isn't that just ketchup and mayo? Make your own! Seriously, can't be that difficult to whip up a batch of dressing.

eww! That's what's happening on the beer aisle. I'm not gonna be suckered into a Passion Fruit Cardamon Hazy Porter and I'm not putting a raspberry bleu cheese ginger vinegrette on my salad.

I have six different salad dressings in the fridge and I just can't decide. Caeser is my go to, but c'mon, I really should have something else for change. The Lime Cilantro, perhaps?

Left side drive is an interesting choice. It's good but I'd hardly rate it as top tier, but hey
Vive la difference. To me, Left Side Drive is opiate sex butter but without the addiction/guilt/fat.
Another favorite of mine is Melissa Juice which I have always wished had been expanded into a full song. Then again, it's pretty perfect just as is.

Left Side Drive - for some years now, followed closely by
Peacock Tail - again, for some years now.

From a local brewery, Peach Drips Creamsicle IPA. Hazy IPA with peach puree, lactose, and vanilla. Pretty good, kinda strange to taste the hops and vanilla but I think it works well.
That is everything that is wrong with modern craft brewery. Sadly, the IPA has become the 'alternative rock' of beerdom. Can't figure how to stand out in a crowded market? Throw some fruit in it, hop it up, call it an 'IPA' and jazz it with punchy graphics. Can I interest you in some Watermelon beer?

I'm jamming on the Brainticket Anthology ATM. Frickin' brilliant stuff, though the ramblin' psych-chic vocals can be a bit much.
That cover is a weird one. It's as if they were channelling Cleopatra Records' aesthetic 20yrs before the label was founded. Definitely not the worst cover ever but I'd put it left side of the bell curve.
