Most people don't know that back in 1912, hellmann's mayonnaise was
manufactured in england. In fact, the titanic was carrying 12,000 jars
of the condiment scheduled for delivery in vera cruz, mexico, which was
to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in new york. This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise
ever delivered to mexico....
But as we know....The great ship did not make it to new york.... The
ship hit an iceberg and sank.... And the cargo was forever lost.... The
people of mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly
awaiting its delivery....Were disconsolate at the loss....
Their anguish was so great, that they declared a national day of
mourning which they still observe to this day....
The national day of mourning occurs each year on may 5th....
And is known....Of course....As sinko de mayo

Anyway... I think they should be looking for cheddar-headed-orca.
