There exists in this world a condiment below all others. It has all of the flavor of sawdust and the sublime texture of soap scum. Until recently, I was unaware that The Federalist, lovers of freedom, etc., was complicit in its spread. I rise today to defend America—nay, the world—against such scurrilous anti-food propaganda.
As all Americans, especially Texans, know, mayonnaise is a tool of oppression used by communists and bland-food lovers everywhere. It is a form of mind control designed to cow you into a sense of complacency about life. Food has flavor, and mayo covers that flavor up. It destroys your ability to taste.
What do you do to a food if it is too intense, and you’re not Texan? You add mayonnaise. In much the same way that salt is used to flavor food, mayonnaise is used to bland it. It is flavor’s anti-particle: it annihilates on contact.

I hate mayonnaise. There I wrote it. I’ve come clean.
I’ll throw in my two cents here. Try labneh, an Arabic slightly salted strained yogurt, also known as Kefir cheese, something it is not. Try spreading it on bread with a little olive oil then put anything on top you wish. It is also used as a dip: labneh, olive oil, minced red onions, with flat bread to scoop it up. Excellent. Over and out on this thread.
Anytime I use mayo at home, I have to check the expiration date on the jar. I like a little mayo, just not all that often.
Yep
Mayo is the condiment of White privilege.
Greek potato salad should not contain mayo. They would use olive oil and lemon juice or vinegar. Russian potato salad uses mayo.
To correct my above statement. On those rare occasions when I feel like peeling potatoes or hard boiled eggs, I use it in my potato salad and deviled eggs. Sparingly.
I did an unofficial survey once on one of these Mayo threads.
It seems for the most part people liked what they grew up.
Our house was Miracle Whip. I don’t like Mayo.
Tomato sandwiches need Duke’s mayonnaise. Hellman’s would be okay if you don’t have Duke’s.
Who doesn't??
You gotta slather one side of a hamburger bun (preferably the top one) with mayo just as you’re removing a fatburger from the grill.....
I like HP sauce. Goes well on all British food.
Ever try mayo on a peanut butter and tuna fish sandwich?
It’s a recipe from Hellmman’s, so naturally it uses mayo (theirs, of course).
Yes!
Sotomayer's hair too.
DUKE’S
Hellman’s has the word “hell” in it . . . :o/
We mostly use mayo to make tartar sauce and mix with sour cream for potato salad.
I like mayonnaise. I use it on hot dogs, hamburgers, fench fries, whatever I can.
I despise....and mean utterly DESPISE Miracle Whip. It is a cloyingly sweet substance invented by fiends and enemies of humanity.
My wife loves it. This had led to tensions.
When I was a kid one of my friend’s mom used Miracle Whip on sandwiches. I always made sure to fill up before going there.
Is this banana and tomato on the same sandwich??????
