"Mayonase"

At school my typical jar of mayonnaise lasts through fall and winter semester, then I would grab it from the back of the fridge and throw it away before I left my apartment for summer. However, Chileans eat mayo on EVERYTHING. Hotdogs. Rice. Avocados. Potatoes. Chicken. Steak. It is only sold in giant bags and consumed as quickly as milk.

At first I was hesitant. When pressured, I would politely put a scoop on my plate and only barely dab my food in it when someone was watching. However, I am starting to enjoy it on...well, just about everything. I think it adds a creamy and pleasant zing! and I find myself reaching for the bowl of mayo just about every meal.

And before all of you comment "Gag. That is so gross!!!" or "Eww." or "I just vomited a little in my mouth", just try it.

I have enjoyed mayo/extra mayo on many things. I have had to suffer in the closet for years on this subject, but this post has freed me. Maybe I am part Chilean!
