Ketchup on steak is very working-class poor, and is usually done to make cheap 1$ cuts palatable. So whenever a journalist or celebrity or Twitter* user shits on ketchup with steak or McDonalds, they're really saying 'I hate the poor.' The best example of this is a journalist asking a DC politician about the time Trump had him over for meatloaf, the journalist said something akin to 'that must've been so humiliating', and the politician responds 'no! It was great!'
Fun fact: Ketchup wasn't even originally made of Tomato! It was originally made in China by boiling fish like Anchovy or tuna with salt till you got a reduction of their juices mixed, or made with salt and mushrooms long before it got made with tomato (because people used to think Tomatoes were poisonous due to being related to nightshade)
Side note: I love that the first British variation on ketchup is literally stale beer and fish boiled together.
