The Diner According to Jackie Mason

Mason_l I just returned from a grilled cheese outing at NYC's Cosmic Diner with "colleagues" (at some point I'll be able to use that word without quotes) Jason Adams, Michael Endelman, and Leah Greenblatt. For dessert? Jackie Mason slurping up matzo ball soup, just inches to our right!

We were going to just let this sighting slide. But then during a deep discussion of ketchup brands, including the hotly debated "hit the Heinz bottle on the 57" trick, Jackie became really engrossed in Leah's assertion that organic ketchup sucks compared to regular ketchup because there's nowhere near enough sugar. Seriously. Intrigued. From a certain angle, it looked like he actually shushed his female companion in order to hear more. If ketchup shows up in his next routine, he has us to thank. You're welcome, good sir!

P.S. How awesome is the "Food and Drink" category on PopWatch?

Jackie Mason is probably the dumbest man I've ever had to listen to. He isn't even a celebrity, so don't talk about him.

Dane Cook on Thursday, Jackie Mason on Friday. Yeah EW, you're on the cutting edge of interviewing great comics.

Hitting the ketchup bottle on the 57 does work. It's not a myth.

Didn't Jackie Mason just make some incredibly racist comments about Barack Obama on his video blog? He's foaming-at-the-mouth nutty. I'm not surprised he was engrossed in a conversation about a bottle of ketchup; it seems right up his intellectual alley.
