Social acceptability of putting condiments on pizza

[Ack]

Also, I'm from the south and hate mayo.

Agreed.

So no tuna salad, chicken salad, waldorf salad, ranch dressing, awesome blossom sauce, plus tons of sushi rolls would not be around, no Bic Macs, etc.

The only one of those I eat anyway is chicken salad, and very rarely. And if I can't taste the meat for the mayo, I spit it out and throw it away. The sushi I eat doesn't include mayo.

No tartar sauce on fried fish. No Russian dressing on your Reuben. etc.

I also don't eat fried fish or reubens.

I have a feeling your stomach secretly despises you.

There is nothing better than a good old-fashioned reuben from NYC. No where else in the world has reubens quite like them.

I eat fried fish sans the tartar sauce. Put me in the anti-mayo camp. About the only thing I really don't like. My kids put ketchup on everything and anything, well expect pizza but my daughter will dip her crackers or mac and cheese in ketchup but I don't even think she would put ketchup on her pizza.

My kitchen just let out a big "Oh no he didn't!".

I'll take the pepsi challenge with any reuben from any restaurant. Not to say I'll win, but I make one mean reuben.

Ever hear someone say something close to "I never got to McDonald's for a hamburger, I go to McDonald's for a McDonald's hamburger"?. That's how I feel about Scholotzki's reuben sandwich. It isn't a real reuben in a traditional sense, but it sure is tasty.

Homemade is something different altogether. In every city I've been to, at every deli or "deli" or restaurant that serves sandwiches, if I've not had their reuben, then I go for it. I thought I found some pretty decent ones here and there, but then I went to the place the supposedly started it all in NYC, and my god, I couldn't even finish it. I always finish them. But not this one. It was huge, the meat delightful, the sauce perfect, the bread exactly how I want it. I'd definitely be willing to try yours out, but I'm not sure you'll win.

The reuben originally hails from Omaha, tyvm.

Says you and a bunch of liars. Apparently there is a dispute, but I think NYC has the better evidence for it. ;)

This describes me as well. I hate that I live in a part of the country where it is apparently normal to order EVERYTHING with gobs of mayo. I'll never forget the time I was behind a girl who ordered a Meatball Sub with mayo.

In general, I tend to prefer no condiments at all on my food - however, I'll take mustard over ketchup (preferably 'spicy' mustard), and I'll take spoiled milk before I take mayo.

I will, VERY RARELY, have ranch dressing on my salad. However, only at places that know how to make it taste good - and usually, only if they don't have French, Honey Mustard, Catalina or Italian available.

I'm another southerner who isn't fond of mayo. I use (and prefer) miracle whip when making tuna salad, but I use just enough to hold it together.

I've known people who dip fries in mayo.

Worst I've ever seen was on a workday lunch trip to Subway years ago. I was behind 2 ladies that were bordering on morbidly obese. One of them ordered her footlong (I do too, no big deal there) and said yes to mayo. She wanted more mayo than the usual squirt up and down. The 'sandwich artiste' used an entire squeeze bottle worth on her sandwich before she was satisfied. Why bother putting it on the sandwich where it's going to squeeze out like that? She might as well have just dipped the sub in a jar before each bite. *puke*

I have nothing against overweight people. I have friends that can't help it even though they don't eat a lot and do get some physical activity. But damn, you think there might be a reason you are large to the point of being really unhealthy when you are eating half a jar's worth of mayo on just your lunch?
