I just discovered that my new coworker Anjuli hates mayonnaise too. We were placing our Mr. Pickles order and after I stated "no mayo, no mustard" she admitted that she thought mayonnaise was gross and made a putrid disgusted face. This was particularly amusing to me because it was basically the same face I make when the topic of mayo is brought up. So we proceeded to high five and discuss how nasty it is that people dip artichokes in mayonnaise. We agreed that basically artichoke leaves are like mayonnaise spoons for some people. Most people probably wouldn't eat spoon fulls of mayo (accept my mother-in-law, but that is a topic for another day) but they'll load it up on their artichoke shovels (I think I just threw up in my mouth a little). And don't even get me started on the fact that they think they're eating healthy because they're eating a vegetable. FYI - 1 tablespoon of mayo has 90 calories (all from fat) and 10 grams of fat (1.5 grams saturated).
So anyway, I am extremely happy to know that next time we order sandwiches for a lunch meeting, I won't be the only one requesting mine with no mayo.
