    Mayonnaise into aioli is the most successful rebrand of all time. Mayonnaise is dead, long live mayonnaise

        What mayonnaise do you people eat that what he described sounds awful…? My mayonnaise is so good I could eat it by the spoonful!

          Just because it tastes good doesn’t mean you want to eat it on crackers. I like ketchup with french fries, but I’m not going to spread ketchup on a cracker.

            Hmmm… Maybe it’s a regional thing, where “cracker” means something else than it means here, where I’m at.

            To me, a “cracker” is salty and crunchy and would be great with some mayo.

      it also creates a hydrophobic layer on bread so you can have a moist sandwich and not have it drown the bread

      I think you’re eating the wrong mayo if it tastes like cum… That, or someone is tampering with your food lol.

      If it’s just because of the color, that’s pretty immature, gotta say. Not even close to the same texture/consistency either.

      So you want food to taste good but then you do not want to use mayo and ketchup?

      That’s very inconsistent.

          Me too. But we were talking about mayo and ketchup. Neither of these contain corn syrup in my experience.

          But maybe that’s different in the US?

            Ketchup has corn syrup in the US, also its generally way too sweet. Im not sure about where you are but imo tomatoes (an already sweet vegetable) doesn’t need additional sweetening.

              Tomatoes are sweet?

              I grew up gardening, tomatoes aren’t sweet… Unless you specifically get a sweet variety.

              As for ketchup, stop buying shitty brands of ketchup. If you think ketchup is crap, I suggest you read some history of the stuff, and maybe make your own.

              That also seems to be a US experience. In the EU tomatoes can also be sour which is one of the reasons we put a little bit sugar into tomato sauces.

          If you can’t taste the flavor of mayonnaise you might be the one with the unsophisticated palate. You’re welcome to say you don’t like it, or that it doesn’t have a good or intense enough flavor, but not being able to discern its flavor at all is a you thing.

            I mean water has a ‘taste’ but noone going to say that water is flavorful.

            But go on. Defend a pointless condiment. It only serves to be a base for things that have flavor.

    Not a huge mayo fan, but a cold tuna sandwich with lots of salt, black pepper, and cayenne, on Martin’s potato bread, with a cold Coke. Stuff of the gods.

    Time to quote the Bible to the boomers who always hypocritically claim to love it so much:

    “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:” - Ecclesiastes 3:1

    …and mayonnaise should be used extremely wisely: never in vain, never merely due to tradition - and no matter what, it should always be used with full knowledge about its true, if somewhat mysterious and indescribable-in-words purpose. Those who never consider these mysteries are not fit to decide whether it is appropriate to use mayonnaise or not.

      Yeah I dunno. Miracle whip is gross as fuck.

      Ah. I get it, no one actually looked up the article.

      https://www.phillymag.com/news/2018/08/11/mayonnaise-industry-millennials/

      As Boston chef Scott Jones told Ari LeVaux, “The magic that sets mayonnaise above Coke and Heinz is that mayo is a perfect flavor carrier.” It just makes everything better. Need proof? Do other condiments have pale imitators like Miracle Whip and Just Mayo and Vegenaise? I don’t think so!

        No idea what that is, but the picture is very much of Hellman’s mayonnaise, which is the most mayonnaise of all the mayonnaises

            What do you want about? I don’t even know what miracle whip is, I’ve never heard of it, but the picture is of Hellman’s which is definitely mayonnaise and not salad cream or anything else

              Did you read the article? That’s where you’re confused here. I know what both are, you’re preaching to the choir.

              Read the article you’ll be less confused.

    I prefer other things than mayonnaise because I just quite like mayonnaise. It’s kinda just this oily thing with a few hints of flavour.

    And no, I’ve not been eating “the wrong mayonnaise” or “not good mayonnaise” or anything similar to that, because I know people will come out the woodworks saying such things. I’ve lived all over Europe and tried all sorts of mayonnaise and it’s still has the sane problem with being mayonnaise.

    If I have the choice between ketchup and mayonnaise I’d choose ketchup. But typically I’d pick something like aioli. REAL aioli, not the crap that’s just mayonnaise with garlic flavour.
