Lunchtime Quickie

Posted by on Fri, May 22, 2009 at 11:56 AM

A lot of you Sloggers are about to embark on a long Memorial Day weekend filled with sunshine, picnics, and BBQs. Hey, just remember keep those hot foods hot, and the cold ones cold. Especially the mayonnaise. Actually, just skip the mayo.

H/T to Terry. From the classics bin...

Retail mayo will not go bad at room temperature and is actually an anti-bacterial pH.

You could expend your concerns on diseased goose livers or this:

Nevertheless, a day without mayonnaise is like a day without food lube.

Let's see if embeds work:

Slightly off topic, but Trader Joe's Organic Mayo is, IMHO, as good as the mayo I make from scratch. Just so you know.

Ezzel's spicy fried chicken is great and you don't need Mayo.

But JoeG is right about Trader Joe's.

@1 is absolutely right. If your potato salad made the whole church picnic sick, it's the potatoes that bred the bacteria, not the mayo. Bacteria LOVES any kind of starch, especially if it's wet. Mayo goes a little clear, which is unappetizing, but not harmful.

...And we've also found out that html embeds don't work in comments. :/

I actually like Trader Joe's Wasabi Mayo.

I'm confused, they're teaching us to say that phrase in English, with the funky chicken, while wearing Bikinis with a German Word emblazoned on the chest.

Er... what?
