American hatred for mayonnaise

[danyboy27]

I really dont understand why so many american hate mayonnaise in their fast food.

Here in Canada we put it all over the place, Hot-dogs, fries, Hamburger you name it.

[Qayin]

I love mayo

[Pirate Utopian]

In Holland people drown their fries in mayonaise, myself included.

[PhoenixAsh]

Because it has substance?

think about it ;)

:tt2:

[The Douche]

Most americans love mayo, what do you find them excluding it from? Its not usually used on fries or hot dogs here, but it is often on hamburgers, just not the cheap fast food kind, its usually on the nice sit-down restaurant kind though.

I do hate mayonnaise though and don't eat it on anything.

tourists...

[Sword and Shield]

lol you guys put mayo on American tourists?

[Robespierre Richard]

My only problem with mayo is that it has a lot of fat. I do put low fat mayo on fish though.

[praxis1966]

Personally, I don't understand the attraction to mayonnaise. I mean, I've eaten it and it's not bad but it damned sure ain't all that great either. Aioli, on the other hand... Anyway, I guess that has to do with the fact that I grew up in the South and a great many of us from that region prefer something a lot bolder in flavor. Gimme Russian or German mustard or hot sauce any day of the week over mayo.

[Vendetta]

Mayo is fucking disgusting.

[Means to a end]

I can eat it, but as praxis said, give me a bit of Mustard (albeit English for me, never heard of Russian, what is it like?) any day.

[Comrade J]

Chips dipped in mayo :wub: Or fries, as some people insist on calling them.

The [Russian] stuff I've had is like a honey dijon only way more potent. It's quite literally the strongest mustard I've ever had... Even stronger than Chinese mustard.

^Put that shit on a hot dog or bratwurst with some onions and sauerkraut and you're set.

[Rusty Shackleford]

i fucking hate mayo as well. the only instance where it is even remotely acceptable as a condiment is with any type or fried and breaded fish in rectagular cutouts.


its fine in tuna salad and egg salad though.

[Omsk]

Mayonnaise is good,so is mustard.I also like ketchup.But you need to be careful with what you mix it with.
Mayo - sandwich.
Mustard - Wurst/hot dog.
Ketchup - Fries or meat-patty's.

In Russia they put that stuff (in powder form) on bandages and put it on your chest/back/soles so that there is more blood circulations when you're sick. It's actually called a gorchichnik or mustarder.

[Admiral Swagmeister G-Funk]

its good in a potato salad, but i've never been too big on it. i don't like the fact it has raw eggs in it, it kinda makes me feel nauseous thinking about it.

[Rusty Shackleford]

yeah :blushing:

[danyboy27]

lol you guys put mayo on American tourists?

no, American tourist seem to hate mayo.

that the way i difference an american and an english canadian tourist, hatred for mayo and waistline.

also, english speaking canadian, especially those coming from Ontario always look so fucking happy, i never understood why.

''look at all those french speaking folks harold!, its like if we where in France but at the fraction of the cost''.

[Vendetta]

also, english speaking canadian, especially those coming from Ontario always look so fucking happy, i never understood why.

They're no longer in Ontario. :p

[danyboy27]

They're no longer in Ontario. :p

HAHA its not the first time i hear that explanation.

Maybe its beccause our bar stay open until 3:00 AM.

I'll buy that. Just eating it will damned sure open up your sinus passages with a quickness, sorta the way wasabi does. I've also heard of similar practices with capsicum producing chiles.

[Tablo]

I don't really mind mayo, I just don't understand why people like it so much.

[Die Rote Fahne]

Pffft use Franks RedHot. I put that shit on everything.

:D

[Robespierre Richard]

So uhm... Is mayonnaise anti-imperialist?

[JazzRemington]

I've always seen it on chicken sandwiches and turkey-bacon clubs. I rarely get it, because it never stays on and tastes awful when it gets warm.

I like mayo, but I have to spread it on myself because I like a very specific and small amount, anything more than this will make me barf.

[Il Medico]

Too much Mayo will likely end in me gagging. So as you can guess I'm not a fan. Will still eat stuff with it though (Tuna fish sandwich, burgers, and some other things including an extremely delicious Spanish Cheese dip whose name escapes me), which can't be said for yellow mustard. You don't want me to eat something, put that shit on it. Yuck.

[Comrade J]

Corned beef, onion and mayo sandwich is fucking awesome.

All else is heresy.

[gorillafuck]

We put mayo on burgers and sandwiches. Not fries or hot dogs though.

Mayo is only good if it's a really tiny amount.

acceptable.


its absolutely discusting when it gobs off yer meat and all that. like, i got a chicken sandwich from a fast food place and i forgot to ask no mayo, the patty almost fell out along with 3 liters of mayonaise. :crying:

[Dr Mindbender]

If you're going to order mayo from somewhere, make sure you do so from somewhere there is good industrial relations.

[DDR]

I really hate mayo, I makes no sense to me.

Death to mayo, long live Alioli!!! (or salsa brava, or moustard, even the worcestershire sauce and houses of parliament)

[ÑóẊîöʼn]

I fucking love mayonnaise. It's probably one of the reasons I'll likely die of a heart attack before cancer gets me.

I just literally puked when I saw this. Literally. On the desk.

This. It is good on a burger when it's just like a little thin barrier between the bun and the ketchup.

[Jimmie Higgins]

Does this have any connection to the "Don't wanna be white" thread?

No mayo. I don't get the attraction, it's terrible. It's the 3rd Reich of food.:lol: How's that for unnecessary escalation in a discussion?

Ok, I don't like mayo, but I'm joking about all that above. However, has anyone seen those new ads for "edgy" mayo? It's hilarious that they made an ad trying to make mayo all "grungified" and hardcore... "Some call us outlaws, some say we're insane, but we have to have our Mayo. Mayo: it's not for everyone. Are you cool enough for it?"

[MarxSchmarx]

It is somewhat difficult to find outside of north america, but anything that calls for mayo tastes that much richer with ranch salad dressing instead.

Fuck that noise. Ketchup's too damned sweet. I can tolerate, and even love (hot sauce, salsa, Italian red sauces in all their various guises except puttanesca, etc), tomatoes in all their other forms except ketchup.

[Jazzratt]

[praxis1966]

Me too. :lol:

[Gorilla]

Ketchup is one of the only foods where sugar is actually used as a thickener.

Think about that.

Fortunately there is an alternative:

That's right: banana ketchup.

[Agent Ducky]

I can tolerate it in potato salad, but I don't really like it that much... It's kinda gross O_o.

[Agent Ducky]

Banana ketchup? That sounds gross. Is it good? Lolol

[Leonid Brozhnev]

I've become addicted to this...

http://expatemporium.co.uk/1853-598-large/hp-guiness-sauce-top-down-475g.jpg

I pour it on basically everything... :thumbup1:

Oh, yeah. I love Mayo also.

[Agent Ducky]

OH. and not all Americans hate mayonnaise, because I saw this one cooking show where.. Oh it makes me gag... This guy took a huge thing of mayonnaise, froze it in liquid nitrogen, and then deep fried it. And the lady who ate it thought it was delectable :blink:

[Omi]

I'm dutch so yeah, i basically love it when my fries drown in mayoniase. It's one of the few Egg products that I can't seem to give up even though I try to cut egg from my diet.

[danyboy27]

Homemade mayonnaise is really easy to make btw. all you need is some egg and, fuck i cant remember the recepie.

I've had slices of fried cheese as part of a fry-up a few times. How is that any better?

I had a few bottles from St. Lucia, but haven't found any in the US. Where do you get it?

Edit: Oh wait, this is a Filipino variety not a Caribbean one.

Probably gonna stock up on some more (http://www.amazon.com/Baron-Banana-Ketchup-14oz/dp/B0019BCQ56) though.

[MarxSchmarx]

[Manifesto]

Mayo is fucking disgusting.
This exactly. I fucking hate it.

[Comrade J]

Maybe the US has shit mayo, seeing as so many Americans seem to hate it? Get French mayo, very nice.

Also, in Japan they have these MAYO FLAVOURED CRISPS!! (Potato chips)
http://insendai.files.wordpress.com/2008/10/mayo-chips1.jpg

If you look carefully, you can see the strips of mayo on the crisps.
