Of Mayonnaise and Minorities [Mayo is forbidden to Muslims!]
American Thinker ^ | July 6, 2006 | Keith Roderick

Posted on 07/06/2006 6:30:48 PM PDT by Alouette

A recent article in the UK Telegraph offered insights into the many ways that Islamists in Baghdad are making life, by increments, miserable for citizens of the city. Ice producers, crucial in helping people survive in Iraq’s 115 degree summer heat, have recently suffered several murders from their ranks. The reason: Their product was not available during the time of Mohammed.

Street venders who sell the popular Middle Eastern food falafel have also lost two of their own in the past few weeks, with other venders now closing their stalls. The same reason is offered by the Islamists, namely, that falafels did not exist at the beginning of Islam. Those who laughed off the warnings are now lying in Baghdad cemeteries.

Islamists have also warned Baghdad residents who wear goatees to shave or else. That prohibition, subject to a visit from a vigilante death squad, is due to the fact that goatees originate from a “Jewish facial hairstyle.” The article states that barbers have been busier than usual, after a 17 year old was murdered the other month for ignoring the no-goatee warning.

Mayonnaise is also in the sights of the self-appointed morality police. Like goatees, mayonnaise has a Jewish connection. Mayonnaise is made in Israel. Therefore, it, too, joins the long list of things haraam, forbidden to Muslims, according to the Islamists’ playbook. Needless to say, most restaurants are holding the mayonnaise, with or without the customer’s request.

Does that mean they're going burn all their mass-produced korans? The printing press didn't come along until mohammad had been in hell for 400 years. How about cars? Bin Laden loves his Land Cruisers. Does he have to get around by camel from now on? What a bunch of ignorant backward pigs.

Tell me this again, the Muslim states have the capability of making bombs, missiles, and tanks but they can't do mayonnaise?

"if the Hebrews didn't have it during the exodus from Egypt, it's not kosher."

Well, mayo is eggs, oil, and an acid such as lemon juice or vinegar. But the migrating masses didn't have a plethora of modern foods either.

I have a feeling that these a-holes have an exception for explosives and weapons "that weren't around at the time of Mohammed."

If anyone has a need for Miracle Whip I'd suggest adding Karo syrup to mayonnaise.


Yes, it does sound disgusting. But hey, it's Hellman's for me. I was brought up right.

Is everyone just believing all of this because it's printed in the paper?

Be careful with that.

I asked a couple of the locals about this and they waved it away. One of them said "This is...what you call an urban myth."

they used (still do use) their left hand to clean themselves and ate with their right hand, which is why if you are caught stealing they cut off your right hand

Can they have Miracle Whip? I just need to know.

It wouldn't surprise me if Miracle Whip were forbidden, as is just about anything civilized and good in that "culture" of death.

They put sugar in Miracle Whip.Heresy!

No, yummy! They also put in vinegar, and I believe some other spices.

Just egg yolks and oil please.

That's a different product known as "mayonaise."

Remember, Miracle Whip is "Salad Dressing." Think of it as mayo that tastes good.

how else can you eat a nice ham sandwich without a good slathering of mayo?

Mustard and/or Miracle Whip!

It's not exactly, "traditional," but kids in my family were brought up to eat gefilte fish with a mixture of mayo (or Miracle Whip, their choice!)and horseradish, which we called "chrainonnaise"

Are you sure that you want to bring up gefilte fish? I've got a friend (who happens to love fish) that's convinced that Jews are insane, because of that one dish... I've never mentioned kishke in his presense.

Most of mohammads disgusting writings were plagarized from jews and christians. Along with satanic verses.

It's like a non-stop party in Mohammedland.

For a religion that supposedly worships Allah alone, they expend a lot of effort in idolizing a supposed prophet.
