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.

Kraft mayo is the definitive ingredient for the proper tarter sauce.

Mayo I can deal with in potato salad or deviled eggs. Miracle whip is one step below onions on the Normie scale and they literally make me vomit.

"And don't say MAYONNAISE, it was invented by the French, for crying out loud!"

Once you are talking about food you better get over the French thing.

I love mayo. Miracle Whip is disgusting.

I am a true Southern girl. I love grits, but I also love mayonnaise on my banana and tomato sandwiches! When I was a little girl and my mother served us chopped broccoli for Sunday dinner, we would put mayonnaise on that, too. You should try it - it's delicious! I HATE Miracle Whip, though.

Miracle whip and northern mayos are usually criticized because they are way heavy on the vinegar than actual mayonnaise is.

Yum, I'll sometimes marinate hamburgers in it before I grill them.

I only use mayonnaise on tomato sandwiches.
It has to be Dukes.

I believe the Brits use malt vinegar.

And Canadian poutine, preferable the fries cooked in duck fat, uses a gravy, traditionally beef, but chicken is good too. They use [cheddar] cheese curds as well, but practically any shredded cheese will do.

Ketchup is the worst.
It even ruins the tomatoes it’s made from.

French fries that are spiced or beer batter go great with nothing. If they’re not I use BBQ sauce or mustard. Everything you do with ketchup is better with BBQ.

During the French occupation of Mexico, the French soldiers really missed having mayonnaise, so a special ship with barrels of it was sent from France. Unfortunately the ship sank before it got to Mexico and the French soldiers were inconsolable. But the Mexicans were delighted and ever since then have celebrated the “sinko de mayo.”

If I recall correctly, these same French soldiers had a tendency to avoid bathing. The Mexicans referred to them as "stinko de mayos"

There’s a vegan “mayo” called “Just Mayo” that stirred up a bit of controversy recently. Apparently egg-less, so can it still be called “mayo”?
