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.

My Great Grandparent’s came from Italy (Grandfather’s side) and Scotland (Grandmother’s side) in the late 1800’s, probably came through Ellis Island.

They ended up staying in Brooklyn NY. No Farmers there. LOL

When my Father met my Mother the big deal was that he actually owned a Car, a beat up Ford Model A with the Front Fenders held on by a Rope over the Hood.

He had the Wheels in the Family and he became the go to get to anywhere guy. Nobody in the Family could even imagine owning a Car at that time.

Your comment was right on. Our Family was poor and so was everyone else. The difference between then and now is that People back then did what they had to do to live their Lives. There was no “hammock” to catch them. You weren’t a Victim, you were a Survivor working hard to get ahead and take care of your Family. Uncle Sugar wasn’t so sweet then.

You worked hard and hustled. My Dad went to School thanks to the GI Bill to be a Car Mechanic and he worked as a Soda Jerk on Nights and Weekends. My Mother worked most of her Life as well.

Whatever it took, you did it.

I think it is usurped authority, and therefore, illegal authority.

Clearly, it is within the authority granted by the interstate commerce clause.

But you've no need to know what's in your "mayonnaise', I gather.

Y'know, "murder" isn't in the Constitution, either. But there is a law against it...

“Y’know, “murder” isn’t in the Constitution, either. But there is a law against it... “

Correct, murder isn’t in the Constitution, and as such, it is used to be left to the states or people to determine how to handle this. And is therefore, illegal for the President and his branch at the federal level or any other entity within the federal government.

Some "hoagies" can be made without mayonaise, but this guy's best-selling, most popular hoagie (the #19) does include mayonaise, as he demonstrates in this Pops Philly video clip:

Kewpie mayonnaise from Japan is hands down the BEST (and most $$$$) mayo in the entire universe..

Oddly, it's on the Walmart web site. Doesn't seem prohibitively costly-for the best mayo in the universe, that is. Challenge accepted!

C'mon, let's get this thread to 400. :-)

Instead of ketchup I get cravings for Sriracha Sauce.
I start putting that on everything until my stomach aches and tells me to stop doing that for a while. Eggs, especially omlets, burgers, steak, pizza, chicken oh yeah. People give it to me for Christmas.

I hated mayo until I tasted Hellmann’s. Potato salad, pasta salad, cucumber sandwiches, sandwich spreads.. oh my! How wonderful those things taste now.

OK. Thanks.

I hope that won’t be a problem. If it could be, don’t bother.

Follow the timeline. Mayonnaise did not exist till after God cursed the earth.
