maineshootah Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Helmans is the best mayo. Try cutting a banana in half length ways. Put peanut butter on it and top with mayo. Whaaaaaaaa?????? Hell, even Elvis didn't eat that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimel Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 This really goes deeper then MayoIn my experience it goes deeper. IT GOES TO PEANUT BUTTER ALSO! There are two kind of "children": Hellmanns or Miracle whip And Skippy or Jiff Who can set a POLL on this very important subject? Later we can match GM's, M's & A's to their favorite combo! This is IMPORTANT! Your wish has been granted. http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?...view=getnewpost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-ManBart Posted July 8, 2007 Author Share Posted July 8, 2007 So is it the eggs, oil or lemon juice in particular that ruins it for you or is it the combination? Wow...little did I know what a hot button topic this would be! Yes, I know lots of people love mayo (Mom, Dad and Sis all eat it). It's really the combination. I think it's mostly texture and smell. One time I was eating a sub and finished half...started on the second half and mayo squirted out when I bit into it....everyone laughed as I jumped up and down, spitting the stuff out onto the wrapper (this was at work) and dashing over to rinse my mouth out with water. Needless to say I wasn't very happy with the dolt that made the sub half and half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-ManBart Posted July 8, 2007 Author Share Posted July 8, 2007 What about Miracle Whip, Mustard and Ketchup? What are your feelings on the other condiments? Miracle Whip is right there with mayo in my book. I'm down with ketchup, mustard, relish and most other condiments....maybe it's just the white ones I don't like?

ima45dv8 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I'm with Jim on this. It's funny what turns folks on and/or off when it comes to food. And most times I've found it isn't taste as much as textue that grosses people out. Me? I hate beans, in all varieties, EXCEPT green beans. I don'tknow why they're the only I can tolerate. They just are. Limas, pintos, butterbeans, navy beans, etc., etc., ad nauseum (emphasis on nausea!), I can't stand them. And yes, I am from the South and still can't warm up to them. Yuck! And the only thing I hate worse than beans (or oysters)..........Miracle Whip. To each his own, I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singlestack Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Me? I hate beans, in all varieties, EXCEPT green beans. I have never known a man(until you) that didn't like beans. I like Mayo. I hate Mayo jars. I do not need Mayo on my knuckles. I am a big texture freak. There is no way I could swallow an oyster. Tomatoes can only be tolerated in the sauce form. I'll lift up the cheese to pull mushrooms off a pizza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GentlemanJim Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 WE are such a fickle bunch, are we not? Some of us paint our guns BLUE...my wife included Food that makes some of us salivate profusely ..makes others upchuck Some shoot only plastic guns ...others sneer if it aint a colt....yuk yuk You just have to get a kick out of all strange stuff folks think...eat ..and do. What a boring world it would be if we were all the same. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SA Friday Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I DON'T DO ANYTHING tomatoes in it!!! Pizza is only tolerable if there is only a light coating of thin sauce with NO tomato chunks!!!Eating is about texture to me!! Not a rebuttal My old Norwegian step-grandmother used to make homemade mayo and put on top of freshly sliced tomatoes. We had it at every holiday meal I ever ate in her house. With that said, I must caveat this info with the fact that most of the Norwegian's I've know can eat just about anything (self included). I mean, my god, who would think to soak Cod fish in lye for days and then boil it and eat it.... Lutafisk, eaten that more than once at holiday time too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flexmoney Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Mayo sucks. What sucks more is when you make a very vivid point when you order your food that you don't want any of that crap on your tasty burger. Then is comes with it. Even worse is the half-wit that just wants to take the burger and scrap the mayo off of it for ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Ok, so I am in the hate mayo crowd as well. I dislike Sour Cream even more though. The other day got a nice burrito at Chipotle to go, did not pay enough attention. Got home and the thing was slathered with Sour Cream. So big ole burrito in the garbage. I can tolerate some things such as ketchup, mustard, etc in small quantities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sargenv Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Hmm.. all this talk of food made me.. well, glad that I can eat what I can.. There is an awful lot of food I can't eat at least in it's raw state. Fruits, veggies, most nuts on the planet, and egg yolk products (though in fresh mayo, I think the vinegar/lemon juice cooks the yolk). The other egg based sauces I just thought up are Caeser dressing (egg yolk, garlic, olive oil, anchovy, pepper, parmesan cheese, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, and a little salt) which is basically a thinner Mayo with some stuff added and Hollandaise (egg yolks, butter, lemon juice, shallots, white wine vinegar, pepper, salt) served warm usually with asparagus and sometimes with steak, usually filet mignon if I remember correctly. Talk about coronary sauce.. I can understand why people don't like certain items. My challenge has always been to try to remember what thing friends and family don't like and plan the meals around them. A cook's courtesy as it were.. That being said... if I could eat all these things fresh, I think there would be nothing better that to munch on any fresh fruit, heirloom tomatos, and all those other things I need cook before I munch on em. Odd that I was a pro cook at one point and could only eat about half the things I made.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisStock Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I can't stand the stuff....no really, I hate it. If you held a gun to my head, I knew it was loaded, and I really thought you'd use it, I MIGHT eat mayo +1BazillionGazillion. Luckily, my wife can't stand it either. When I found that out about her, I realized she really was the perfect woman for me Lucky man, my beloved eats that vile stuff. NASTY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Merriam Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Good thing you don't live in the south...it's against the law to hate it here I think it is in my genetic code....(I don't do this) but my grandfather used to eat it with chocolate cake!

Yeah, you make the point very clear, they put the mayo on it anyway and then you end up getting your food around the time everyone else is finished eating....arrrgh. I've had to specifically tell waiters that they need to start over as I won't anything that even touched mayo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJPoLo Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Hellmans is the best mayo. I have to disagree. Best Foods is the best mayo. Hellma's sux! vs. -Chet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynn jones Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 i went to this fast sandwich shop. i said i wanted a hamberger with mustard, lettuse, pickle, and tomato. the order taker said to the cook, "one honkey burger!" i just don't get it! lynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gino_aki Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 I spent summers in my misguided youth with relatives who put mayo on EVERYTHING. Wanting to fit in with my cousins I acquired the taste too. Always have a coupla them bottles just under the gallon size in the fridge and pantry. Don't go through it like they did - like a gallon a week - but I am on cholesterol statins...what can I say, it's an addiction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyinBlue Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 "Miracle Whip" has got to be the nastiest crap-in-a-jar I've ever had ............. and I LIKE mayonnaise. Right On! Chris...ditto on both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyinBlue Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 What about Miracle Whip, Mustard and Ketchup? What are your feelings on the other condiments? Around here, green chili is the most used condiment; hamburgers, hotdogs, eggs, sandwichs, dip, salad... I don't think it goes well with ice cream or cereal.
