What is It with the Chinese and Mayonnaise?

[Paul Hanson]

Every food should have mayo on it. It's really that good.

I've been trying for years to introduce the continental concept of mayo on chips to Britain, but the population here simply don't seem to grasp the concept. Retards.

Breaded scampi with mayonnaise...

[aaglo]

breaded anything with mayo...

Yes Eurocommies have mayonnaise with their pommes frites. And with their moules/mussels too.

Not with moules that's a mustard/vinaigre based dip.
-

The canadians eat their salted french fries with vinegar

Now that is just silly...

Addition: Yes, I love mayonnaise. I love everything that tastes good. I've tasted the fries with vinegar - and they weren't that bad actually

A very good idea btw, as the vinnegar will cut the fat.
In belgium, lemon is added to mayo which gives a similar effect.

Just mentioning once again that fries/chips are a Belgian invention
And they are called frieten !!!!

Flemish fries (NOT the same as French fries) with mayonnaise -- best. food. ever!

[DAVOUT]

Mayonnaise is classically offered with cold meat (beef, mutton), cold fishes or cold seafoods (crab, crayfish, scampi) in small quantity. It is also mixed in a salad made of several vegetables (Macédoine).

cold seafoods (crab, crayfish, scampi)

Coctail is more often used with these dishes imo, often refered to as "bellevue"

Man, your diet must be very lopsided...

Just because I like it a lot doesn't mean I eat it a lot

Mayonnaise on anything makes me vomit. The only exception is when used very sparingly with tuna to offset the fishy taste a bit.

[The Mad Monk]

I've noticed that mayonaisse can mean different things to different nationalities, although the basic stuff is usually there.

Yes, I'm talking to you, Frenchie.
