Mayonnaise Is The Worst Condiment
thefederalist.com ^ | Oct. 2, 2015 | William Kelly III

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.

Low-fat anything is gross...gelatinous and sweet.

Miracle whip is DISGUSTING! They call it that, because it’s a miracle anybody would eat it! BLEAH!

I believe the other part of its name stems from how slave masters used to whip their slaves to eat it, because they otherwise wouldn't. But I could be wrong. On occasion I am.

The French may not know much but they know food - and mayo is a brilliant ingredient. If you can’t make it from scratch (easy if you follow Ina Garten) try Hellman’s or...Dukes. I don’t like Dukes but my southern pals do and I don’t vote against them.

Tea, boiling water, enough sugar to send you into diabetic shock even if you aren’t diabetic...mixed together. Then chilled and served over ice.

Come to think of it, tea in general isn’t my thing.

I’ve mixed mayo and onions for fries.

When in Holland a long time back, I discovered mayo and garlic (I think) and it was very good.

I’m sorry but it is not a BLT without mayo.

You also MUST have mayo on turkey sandwiches, tuna salad, chicken salad, deviled eggs, potato salad, hamburgers,egg salad sandwiches, and honey mustard salad dressing and dip.

I saw some people talking about putting mustard in tuna salad.

I like mustard but I couldn’t even imagine it.

I tried it.
I liked it.

But you just put a little.

OK, We just called that Iced tea in the Adirondacks.

Diabetic shock isn’t so bad really. As long as there is more iced tea when you wake up ;)

Add a handful of mint and it’s even better.

Home made mayonnaise is sublime.

Indeed. Had some fresh from the mixing bowl at a French cafe (in France). Crusty baguette, ham, sliced hard-boiled egg, homemade sea-salted butter, a tiny bit of dijon mustard and the ol' my-nez. Woah.

Unless you’ve had Duke’s, you haven’t yet had mayo the way the good lord intended it.

BLT’s, Deviled Eggs, peanut-butter-raisins-mayo,yummmm!

Over-The-Sink Tomato Sammich:
Fresh, extra soft white bread, slathered heavy with mayo on both sides; the ripest tomato you can find sliced extra thick, salt, pepper... pick it up gingerly, roll your sleeves up and lean over the kitchen sink while you eat it while the juice drips off your elbows.

LOL!
They’d have to whip ME to make me eat it!
The name had to do with some machine they invented to mix it, I think.
