Hey we aren't the weirdos who dip our fries in it.

Oh wait that does sound pretty good actually

I wouldn't want to dip my fries in Americans.

Is the American mayonnaise even as real as this real American mayonnaise??

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 hours ago

Mayo is the same color as the Constitution of the United States. It's more really real than l̶̶e̶̶g̶̶a̶̶l̶̶l̶̶y̶̶ ̶̶ ethically allowed possible.

That is pretty much exactly 1/3 of the size we usually buy in the US. I think it's a little over 21 oz, I always buy the 64 oz size. Our family goes through it pretty quickly.

Don't know what you're talking about. As an American, I have one in my fridge. And I carry one to work. To add to my lunch, my coffee, of the sun is too hot and might burn my skin...

My family of 4 goes through that much in about 6 months.

I don't know how okay I am with keeping mayo for 6 months

PH is 3-4, nothing wants any of that action.

There's a reason ketchup and mayonnaise are the classic American condiments, that being that they are acidic enough to remain shelf stable for years. I ain't even joking pre refrigerators that was a massive boon and fridges didn't become common for house holds until the 1950s ice boxes not withstanding.

Ridiculous excess. Probably also has three times the ingredients.

The bigger a container I buy, fewer resources are wasted on packaging and transport

To be fair, it's a bulk club; they're designed to service businesses, but price-wise to value we go through that much in a year and they have great expiration dates. My pantry exceeds the stock of a small European market :)

Can you fit your fist through the top? Can you scoop out a handful easily and leave fingertrails in the bottom? Then it's just normal sized IMO.
