Mayonnaise hatred: A brief history of mayo and disgust.

It doesn't have the delightful tang of Miracle Whip.

My husband can't stand Miracle Whip.

Is he a whipophobe?

Egg whites, oil,salt.
That's it.

Is this really a news item?

Might as well eat Crisco out of the can as eat mayonnaise they taste fairly similar are about as healthy for you and if one prefers excruciatingly bland wouldn't any excruciatingly bland do just as well? Miracle whip at least has something to flavor it and as a previous poster said give it some tang so you can tell you are eating something edible even if it still has the same texture of warmed, blended, overripe suet that mayonnaise and Crisco possess.
But then again you can always add sugar to your Crisco and have Cool Whip.

Meh, its not a fear. Its more of a 'why bother?'

 

[Vanilla Scripture]

Because they have nothing better to do with their life than to grow up and simply avoid the condiment and leave it at that.

(shrugs) My BLT would miss the mayo very much.

It might make you sick. Haven't you heard of the Mayo Clinic?

Ahhhh Slate.com... the best click bait on the planet.

When someone posts a Bad Astronomy link, I just can't not click.

At any rate, I hate mayonnaise because it's a terrible thing and that should be self-evident. Seriously, what's going on with that?

Maybe because in the US it is more commonly this: Water, Soybean Oil, Vinegar, Whole Eggs and Egg Yolks, Modified Cornstarch, Sugar, Salt, Lemon Juice, (Sorbic Acid, Calcium Disodium EDTA) used to protect quality, Xanthan Gum, Phosphoric Acid, Citric Acid, Dl-alpha Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Natural Flavor and Artificial Flavors (Soy), Betacarotene (for Color), Phytonadione (Vitamin K), Paprika Oleoresin.

Mayo is awesome. If you don't like it, I can at least understand. But if you prefer Miracle Whip, which is imitation mayo...then you just ain't civilized.

My best friend and I have had nuclear arguments over this one. His comments on mayo aren't even fit to print.

My comments on mayo aren't even possible to print. According to the legends of the ancients, if you were to print them and then read them backward, you would summon the Blood Gods of the Forgotten Moon to come up to the world of the living and consume them all.

I don't like the look or the smell but it tastes fine.

The question is, since you're writing them BACKWARDS, would that mean the Blood Gods of the Forgotten Moon would consume the living… AFTER SLATHERING THE LIVING IN MAYO?!

Food for thought…

For the record, I don't like the way mayo tastes, nor does I like Miracle whip. It's probably the oil, as I don't like vinegar and oil on salads, but I like vinegar on/in other things.

I believe the only way to save oneself from these monsters would be to slather oneself in Mayo as it would be the only way to make oneself unpalatable enough to them that they avoided eating you.

Nope. There is no hope when the Blood Gods of the Forgotten Moon are risen. They like mayo, and much like street cleaners, they hunt by heat and motion. The best way to avoid them is to be dead already.
