Perhaps a parade of Mrs. O’Learys cows down Michigan Ave instead.
In 1912, the presidente of Mexico traveled to England as part of a friendship tour...While there, he had taste of a condiment that he truly loved....He loved it so much, he thought his people needed to try it...He then, as a starter, ordered 10,000 cases of this condiment to be shipped to the US and then hauled to Mexico...
The ship the condiment was transported on happened to be the Titanic and as we all know, it hit an iceberg and sank...
The presidente felt so bad his people would not get the condiment that he declared a holiday in its memory...
The sinking of all mayonaise is how Sinko De Mayo began....
