In response to a recent post pertaining to calling mayonnaise "sucky street food".



I urge you to come visit the fine establishment known as the "Trappist Café". And then reach a conclusion on the matter. That is all, long may King Mayo reign.

Indeed?

[it's harder to convey his amusement through the word then it would be if he were speaking it aloud]

But then also I understand well that taste is important, and that people can be quite particular when it comes to their food. I wonder if there are other sauces with similar followings...?

hmmm mayo is rather distinct in form and flavor. but tomato sauce is often a popular one. same with various hot sauces.

people like things that give their foods an added kick

The housekeepers I grew up with said that mayonnaise is one of the parent sauces in cooking - is that the case elsewhere? So it must be so. And it has its derivatives that may be served hot as well.

[there is a slight pause, then a sheepish addition]

Forgive me. You meant hot in terms of spice, not temperature.
