I won't eat mayo or anything containing mayo or anything that looks like it might contain mayo. I would never kiss a man who has eaten mayonnaise and not brushed his teeth afterwards--and I'd prefer he gargle with Listerine, too.

My daughters all hate mayo, with the exception of the youngest. My mother corrupted her, and now my baby wants mayonnaise on turkey sandwiches. Gross! But, I adore her so much that I have reluctantly allowed one small squeezable container of mayo to reside in my fridge and I let her put it on her own turkey sandwich.

I love garlic! And olive oil. Leave out the egg yolk and I'm good.

Oddly, I like eggs and egg yolks. But not emulsified into mayo or aioli.

I find mayonnaise to be the most disgusting version of sauce ever invented.

I could never kiss a girl with mayonnaise breath.

I agreee with the mayo haters. I also hate mayo's cousin, miracle whip.

I do enjoy a good horse radish sauce.

If you buy whole canned tomatoes (which are better---the diced tomatoes are treated with a chemical to help them retain their shape and texture) then you can clearly see that these tomatoes weren't infested with worms.

Maybe that's true for the best tomatoes. I heard that it is not true for regular ketchup. Apparently my father gathered from the news that someone actually did a study to carefully insure that no worms were present in some tomatos and then made ketchup that way and compared it to the standard way. People liked the standard ketchup better, or so I was told. I haven't looked up the study myself, but it does sound believable. I don't think the tomatos used are infested with worms--they just have maybe one or two out of several dozen.

How about liver? Who knows what's in it, but it sure tastes yucky. If I were to hazard a guess, I would say it was chemically similar to slime toad or something in warts or earwax.

I like mayonnaise blended with horseradish or wasabi.

Hot Dogs.....yuck!!!


They put the cows eye balls, nose, ears, everything in there, even the tongue! I mean would you eat something that came out of a cow's mouth?

Give me an egg sandwich any day!
I think it would be morally right to lie about your religion to edit the article favorably.
