Showing Original Post only (View all)REALLY? - Mayonnaise haters??? [View all]

"Of all the condiments out there, a fierce hostility toward mayonnaise is definitely the most prevalent. Its one of the most divisive foods, on par with cilantro, blue cheese and coconut. But the hatred for what is essentially emulsified egg yolks, oil and some kind of acid (typically lemon juice, or vinegar) goes beyond the polite declining of a tuna sandwich: Its a force that bonds people, either as a comfort or, in some cases, a means to control public mayonnaise options"
As a lover of all things mayo and growing up with the various salads - egg, ham, tuna, chicken, etc. AND especially that apex of culinary delights a BLT with mayo slathered on the toast bread of the sandwich - I am drawing the line between me and thee who hates mayo. Begone---
Then again, my hero President Obama belongs to that group - well, there's always exceptions, of course.

My mom would make powdered milk and try to pass it off as real milk. We'd bust her every time.
