Ok you all about to go on a ride with me bc I'm not called the Ketchup Queen for nothing! Pizza with ketchup, fruit by the foot with ketchup, rice crispy treat with ketchup, ice cream with ketchup, carrots with ketchup, beef sticks with ketchup, strawberries with ketchup, bread with ketchup, cheese with ketchup (has to be a specific kind of cheese), paper with ketchup (don't question me for being weird), children bones with ketchup :D, etc. (Also last one was joke but I have other combinations I just can't think of)
My older brother used to eat ketchup sandwiches w saltine crackers instead of bread. He had theater group after school and that was his supper on the fly!
Not necessarily weird, but both my mother's recipes for meatloaf and brisket (pot roast) include a couple of good glugs of ketchup, mixed in during cooking. Just not the same without.
Oh and I just remembered that my sister and I loved to put ketchup on our mac and cheese when we were little. I shudder to think about that flavor now.
Ok, it's not actually eaten with the ketchup but blended into it. So, I don't know if it technically counts but...Banana peppers! A local food truck does tots served with banana pepper ketchup and it's awesome. Just the right amount of acid and a subtle warmth.
I love me some ketchup! Of COURSE I dip my grilled cheese in it, and it goes on scrambled eggs and fried egg sammiches, and Ivan Ramen introduced me to fried rice with ketchup draped in egg and squirted with MORE ketchup. Secret Sauce for Animal Style burgers:

I no longer put it on my cream of wheat or oatmeal, for that I switched to Louisiana Hot Sauce ... though MIXING and adding them would be awesome ...
Ketchup sandwich was a childhood favorite of mine, made with 3 or 4 slices of white bread layered with the thick spoonable version of the condiment with the crust cut off to reveal the beautiful red lines!.
