Mayonnaise--why is it on everything now?

[ShainaT]

Who likes Mayonnaise?

I like it but it seems like so many restaurants put it on all their sandwiches these days!

My DH hates it so when he ordered the new spicy chk sandwich at McDonalds he was none too pleased when he saw it had a ton of mayo on it. Same with Boston Market, etc...

I'm not too fond of mayonnaise myself, and McDonalds just glops it on! I swear they put 1/4 of a jar on there! YUCKO!

I agree! I wonder why??

I'm old and like it (as long as it's fat free).

I like it. The more mayo, the better! I hate it when I get a sandwich that doesn't have much mayo on it.

I can't stand lots of mayo on anything, either. You're right, they always seem to put way too much of it on sandwiches, but to me it's always been that way. If I order something with mayo, I automatically ask them to put only a small amount on.

I started laughing ,thinking about this topic later. We use a french fry to scrape off the mayo. But we have no problem eating the lard fried french fries! ROFL

I wondered the same thing Monday when DH and I were traveling to VA and stopped at a Burger King. I ordered a chicken sandwich without even thinking they would slather it with mayo. He ordered two whoppers. We had to scrape off the lettuce, etc. because there was so much of it. I realize that a lot of things they make ahead of time and we were in a hurry so I didn't want to special order but from now on I will make the extra time. I prefer salad dressing to mayo and really don't need either of them on my food. I am a big believer in not drowning food in that stuff. Now, as for the french fries, which I rarely eat, I love a lot of ketchup on them.
