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.

I don’t know if I can do that. Sometimes I like ketchup on french fries. Malt vinegar is good. But mostly just salt only.

I’m afrayyyed to put mayo on fries. I might ruin them both. lol

Mayo on roast beef is a normal, necessary addition to the roast beef sandwich. w/o mayo you haven’t got a sandwich.

I love fries with vinegar and salt! Much better than with ketchup, which is too sweet for me.

“I LOVE Mayonnaise!

I personally go through a jar per month.”

Now I know why I like you; Dear Lady.

Mayo all the way and I hate “salad dressing”.

Mayonnaise is the Nectar of the Gods. This Thread is downright Blasphemous.

Mayonnaise isn’t just a Condiment, it’s a Compliment.
I can’t imagine eating a BLT without heavy Mayo.

My Mother told me that during the Depression they made their own Mayonnaise and put it on two slices of Day Old Bread for a Meal.

Growing up I ate Mayonnaise Sandwiches, and still do on occasion. You slather it on thick as the Bread can hold it. Yummy...

We lived in New York and my Mother always bought Hellmans Mayonnaise. When we moved to California when I was a Kid, she only bought Best Foods Mayonnaise. Others were not allowed in our Household, period.

I also grew up eating Spaghetti and Butter, another Depression era Meal. Filled the Stomach and was cheap.
My 92 Year Old Father still has it a few times a week.

When I Married my Wife she only used Kraft Miracle Whip, some sort of vile tasting Demonic concoction from the depths of Hell.

Luckily, I broke her of that Vile Habit. The first time she saw me eat a Mayonnaise Sandwich she was appalled,
Once she tried one, she never went back to the Dark Side of “Sandwich Spreads”.

What about mayo on peanut butter and tuna fish sandwiches?
Is that normal?

God, I hope so!

Ketchup on fries was more of a kid’s thing for me. But when the fries are over greasy and dry on the inside I’ll go back to ketchup still.

Thanks. I can't claim originality for that. I think maybe Rodney Dangerfield or one of the Blue Collar Comedy bunch came up with that. I AM one of 10 kids, though. 5 boys and 5 girls. I don't think my parents ever figured out what was causing 'em. 😊

I like crispy fries, but not overcooked. If they’re really perfect, they don’t need anything but a little salt.

“I love mayo, but only Hellmann’s.”

Me too——I think it’s a Massachusetts thing. I don’t know anyone who uses any other brand.

Egg salad with Hellman’s is to die for.

Try Roast Beef on Buttered Bread. No other ingredients.

That’s the way my Dear Late Mother made it for me when I was a Kid, and an Adult.
