My brother loves mayo on his breakfast sandwiches like a boss

Mayo is awesome on almost anything. In my family, we take a can of pork n' beans with a couple big dollops of mayo. Delicious. We also do meatballs (frozen, Italian kind) with a spoonful of mayo on top. Delicious. It makes almost everything better. Someone recently made some ham sandwiches for me, and she asked if I preferred mustard or mayo, and I told her mayo. She said it was disgusting and that ham sandwiches should only be made with mustard.

I just don't understand how people can dislike mayo.

Mayo is the ultimate condiment.

I don't really get why people like mayo. Most of the time to me it's a mostly flavorless source of unnecessary wetness. Don't get me wrong, it's a vital ingredient in delicious things like chicken salad. But if I'm going to use a condiment, it's going to be something that actually has a flavor, like ketchup or mustard, or salad dressing.

McCheese · May 22, 2014

Mayo has tons of flavor. Your taste buds are flawed.

Melvin · May 22, 2014

I did smoke for about 19 years, so I'm sure I'm not a supertaster. But "tons of flavor" is an wildly inaccurate way to describe mayo. Do you also think white bread has "tons of flavor"?

Khane · May 22, 2014

Mayo is comprised mostly of fat. Fat is full of flavor. White bread is comprised mostly of white flour, which has almost no flavor. You're bad at this.

My heritage includes Dutch. The Dutch dip their french fries in mayonnaise rather than ketchup.

Mayonnaise is delicious.

I never liked mayo until I made my own. Now I love it. But you know, for sandwiches and normal shit, not putting dollops on my ice cream or whatever. /mayoelitist

You ain't putting no motherfucking mayo emulsions or mayo foam on that shit? Bro do you even mccheese?

I don't dislike Mayo, but I don't think it's worth the calories. I prefer mustard on sandwiches and if I do use anything it's mostly for waterproofing my bread on a burger or something and I usually use a 1/32" layer of light miracle whip.

I think I'm doing a decent job of telling the difference between condiments that have a good amount of distinct flavor (ketchup, mustard, etc) and a condiment that has a pretty mild and unremarkable flavor (store bought mayo). Using your logic, Crisco is comprised almost entirely of fat, and therefore should be even more flavorful than mayonnaise. Nobody in their right minds is going to slather Crisco all over their sandwiches because it's comprised mostly of fat. So no, I don't think I'm the one who's bad at this.

I haven't had home-made mayo in a really really long time though, so I'm open to the idea that I'm not a big enough food hipster to really grok the truest essence of the beauty of mayonnaise.

chaos · May 23, 2014

It really isn't difficult to make. I always assumed it was some crazy process, you can do it in 1-2 minutes and it lasts for a week or so.

Noodleface · May 23, 2014

i make it a point not to put condiments on my food that look like semen

Joeboo · May 23, 2014

Mayo + sriracha mixed together is the way to go. So good on any sandwich that you'd normally put just mayo on.

Same with sour cream + sriracha on mexican food, especially fish tacos.

Falstaff · May 23, 2014

yeah I've been doing mayo + sriracha for awhile now, especially on turkey burgers.

Chaos do you make it by hand or use a food processor or stand mixer or what?

chaos · May 23, 2014

By hand, too lazy to get the food processor out just for mayo. Whisking is the part that takes the longest and it can be done in about a minute. From what I understand there will be textural differences if you use a food processor or other machinery vs doing it by hand.

McCheese · May 23, 2014

Pro tip: if you ever need some tartar sauce to eat with fish but you're out, mix some mayo, relish, and ketchup together.

Vitality · May 23, 2014

I might be an Omega-Taster but I think Mayo/Tartar/Relish taste like absolute ass. Aside from maybe some of the most seasoned Ailo+Mayo combos.

I substitute Caesar Salad Dressing for nearly all of your guys' uses for Mayo here.

Caesar Salad Dressing + Tunafish sandwich with shaved parmesan is pretty good.

Caesar Potato Salad with bacon, brocoli and ribbon noodles.
