You don't put it IN chilli, you have it on the side, as a condiment, because its fucking lush, dude. That creaminess, with the spiciness of a chilli, om nom nom. First did it cos we'd run out of sour cream. Never gone back.

I don't hate mayo, but I can't think of too many situations where I'd prefer it to mustard.

"Nothing is more satisfying than shaved ice over mayo, so refreshing"

Mayo with chilli is totally no like mayo in chicken noodle soup, dude. Have you ever tried it?

Lets cover this bacon with maple syrup and put it on a pancake but FUCK NO NOT CHILLI WITH MAYO.

How does this work, do you get a spoonful of chili and dunk it in the ramekin of mayo on the side so it coats the back of your spooon or what

itt the dude who puts mayo on his chili calls other ppl weird

How do you have guacamole with chilli?

Am literally astonished that you're astonished by this.

Nothing wrong with both -- and if you're making a roast beef sandwich, add horseradish for the trifecta.

The Jesus and Mary Lizard (WmC), Sunday, 23 September 2012 15:53 (eleven years ago) link

Sour cream is what goes in chili and that's not too far off from mayo. It's weird because I've never seen anyone do it but I'd give it a shot.

now let's not kid ourselves that the chili in question was actually chili either, who knows what's going on

j., Sunday, 23 September 2012 15:53 (eleven years ago) link

i was about to say--no need to choose between mustard and mayo in many condiment situations

horseshoe, Sunday, 23 September 2012 15:54 (eleven years ago) link

turkey sandwich, for example

I have never heard of mayo on chili until this thread.

controversial cabaret roommate (Nicole), Sunday, 23 September 2012 15:54 (eleven years ago) link

If you get chilli in a pub in the uk you'll pretty much never see sour cream, but you'll get mayo. All the time.

Sick Mouthy (Scik Mouthy), Sunday, 23 September 2012 15:54 (eleven years ago) link

I seriously want to know the mechanics of chili + mayo on the side as a condiment. Do you spoon up a wee dab of mayo and then go chili-diving?

The Jesus and Mary Lizard (WmC), Sunday, 23 September 2012 15:55 (eleven years ago) link

Haha for a second I thought horseshoe was suggesting the "chili" was actually a turkey sandwich

cake-like Lady Gaga (DJP), Sunday, 23 September 2012 15:55 (eleven years ago) link

WmC, yeah, pretty much. Get some chilli on your fork, get a touch of mayo, delicious.

Sick Mouthy (Scik Mouthy), Sunday, 23 September 2012 15:57 (eleven years ago) link

wait you eat chili with a fork

cherry (soda), Sunday, 23 September 2012 15:59 (eleven years ago) link

sounds gross to me too

i do like mayo with fries

the late great, Sunday, 23 September 2012 16:00 (eleven years ago) link

how about some mayo on your spaghetti mmmmmm

the late great, Sunday, 23 September 2012 16:00 (eleven years ago) link

I'd also add that mayonnaise, which is essentially an oil emulsion using egg lecithin as the emulsifier, is one food in which the best vegan equivalent is almost indistinguishable. Pass right by the Spectrum Naturals and Nasoya - Follow Your Heart's Vegenaise is the best.

How the fuck else do you eat chilli? Trough it from a nosebag like a horse?

Sick Mouthy (Scik Mouthy), Sunday, 23 September 2012 16:01 (eleven years ago) link

FYI the only reference I can find to putting mayo on chili is a Chowhound thread where someone says "I can't help putting mayonnaise on chili in spite of myself"; everything else is a recipe or reference to mayo with chili powder in it

cake-like Lady Gaga (DJP), Sunday, 23 September 2012 16:01 (eleven years ago) link

i eat my chili with a spoon? although a feedbag doesn't sounds bad.

cherry (soda), Sunday, 23 September 2012 16:03 (eleven years ago) link

i can't imagine that mayo is better than sour cream with chili but i guess i'd try it?

Mayo is like a more indulgent alternative to sour cream wit chilli.

Sick Mouthy (Scik Mouthy), Sunday, 23 September 2012 16:06 (eleven years ago) link

do you squeeze the mayo on through a bag

This chili/chilli spelling variation and the fork thing makes me wonder if Sick M. is just eating a pile of roasted chili peppers. American chili is a stew, served in a bowl, eaten with a spoon, so mote it be, forever and ever, amen.

Mayo is from hell.

I respect others' desire to eat it, but please keep it away from me and my mouth.

i feel like this mayo hatred comes from it being dumped on everything in shit delis or whatever.

Mayo is great, it's the only thing that's correct for putting on a BLT with the possible exception of horseradish sauce. Mustard does not belong on a BLT. And it knows that.

I have managed to eat mayo on the handful of occasions when to reject the mayo-laden food would have been worse for me than eating the mayo. I'm not a savage.

I'm disgusted by mayo partly out of habit, partly because of its texture en masse, and also because I don't much care for "creamy" things -- soups, salad dressing, etc. Don't even like cream cheese.

Re jiggliness — when I was in college I remember seeing fellow students eat bowls of flavored yogurt (not Greek but like vats of berry-flavored regular yogurt) decanted into bowls and gobbled up with spoons. I had the same reaction as I do to mayo. It’s not logical or fair but it seems to come from some primordial disgust I have no control over.

Piggy Lepton (La Lechera), Tuesday, 2 January 2024 20:13 (three months ago) link

Also that was v long time ago and I got over my yogurt problem. I have no trouble w pudding but have yet to accept mayo on my food.

has anyone made a "mayo pop"?
