Re: “Mayogate: The Mayo Debate Rages on Twitter

I'm both a mustard person and a mayo person, though you wouldn't know it from looking in my refrigerator. I have 4 types of mustard and even pickled mustard seeds and just one lonely, rather old container of mayo. I really only use it in pimento cheese and egg salad (which also gets a solid mustard treatment). If I had to choose only one, it'd be mustard. Though I'd miss the mayo for my fries.

Re: “Will Nashville Hit the Road?

Have we gotten back all the welfare we gave them? You know, the supposed extra economic activity etc?
Should we feel sorry for this rich corporation which is trying to legally extort us?

Re: “Racist Who Attended Racist Conference in Tennessee Still Being Racist Back at School

Actually, bobs, my happiness is not influenced at all by you. My unhappiness, either, come to think of it.

In other words, my life rolls merrily along, and will continue to do so, regardless of you. I don't hate you; I'm merely indifferent to you.

@Anglrdr: Evidently you're not happy unless I treat you like a white idiot.

@Jimbo: What you're saying is that white people should leave black predators alone.

@Both of you: Here's a link from The Root I've posted before showing relative racism world wide. Notice that America is less racist than all the countries of Africa, Asia, and most of Europe. All those people in all those African countries don't want neighbors of a different race...hmmm. Maybe that's why their cousins in America tend to group together - it's an ingrained racial thing.

Re: “Mayogate: The Mayo Debate Rages on Twitter

Tex - when i make a sandwich, i like put a schmear of Gulden's atop my mayo - on both sides of the bread. if pressed to choose between condiments, i think i'd choose mustard. and i don't have a favorite: dijon, spicy, yellow, grainy, gimme all the mustards.

however, this is mayogate, and i'm partial to Duke's for the aforementioned reasons.

Re: “Mayogate: The Mayo Debate Rages on Twitter

If you're intent on being a mayonnaise snob, you really should make your own, but if you want to be a lazy mayonnaise snob you can probably justify using anything you like, up to and including Miracle Whip. Of course, if unsweetened mayonnaise tastes weird to you you can always sprinkle some sugar on your tomato sandwiches to compensate.

That said, the only mayonnaise they sell at Costco in less than a vat size is Duke's, which happens to be a perfectly servicable mayonnaise--especially for pimiento cheese.

Re: “Tennessee Tries to Bully Berry College

Ah, the good old college days of yore, where I learned to ignore the light that illuminated my inner sanctum. I must admit that my brain frazzled when confronted with the ad hominem methods of circumspection that my professors often employed. I can't blame them though, for they were taught at a young age to bury their innate humanity, their very being, under the surreal skies of academic morbidity. My mind was so unpacked after classes, that the feral hedgehogs of the underworld would come out of their subterranean hiding places to mock my existence. Those are evil beings though, and I would ignore their taunts until, defeated, they would slither back into their holes of darkness! So do not back down, Berry College. Hold to your principles on this billboard and give these clueless government bureaucrats the proverbial finger! You will be happy that you did when you are sitting in That Happy Place, sipping cognac with the Bohemian power-brokers and laughing at the obtuseness of the rest of the human race.

Watching Bobs attempt mental jujitsu is entertaining.

Please, keep on; you're hilarious! And also so not a racist! (Guess which of those statements are sarcastic.)

Re: “Mayogate: The Mayo Debate Rages on Twitter

When I first made mayonnaise, I didn't like it because it did not taste like Hellman's. ( The recipe did not call for any sweetener.) I thought I was doing something wrong. Then I tasted Duke's. It tasted homemade.I use both now. Duke's for sandwiches and I have to use Hellman's for potato salad and layered salad.

Nicki. Try adding a couple of drops of ballpark mustard to the Hellman's Light in addition to the lemon. Also, if you gently heat it, it makes a pretty good low-fat Hollandaise.

Re: “Racist Who Attended Racist Conference in Tennessee Still Being Racist Back at School

NO you simpleton! What I said is that he singled out the target as BLACK predators, thus indicating that he was unconcerned with white predators or felt they did not exist (which is utter B S). Most people not wearing hoods on their head or swastikas on their arms would prefer that ALL predators (red, white, black, pinstripe) be removed! Are you totally unable to understand inferred racism? You seem to employ it quite often!

Re: “WSMV Exposes Metro's Makeshift Toxic Landfill (And a Scalp for Ken Jakes!)

Well I supported Dean, considering that he was the only viable candidate IMHO! I admit that I have been VERY disappointed on both this and his biased support for Great Hearts. Perhaps if a candidate that has more to offer the progressive needs of Metro, and is viable, I can support them!

Re: “Mayogate: The Mayo Debate Rages on Twitter

I originally took exception to your comment that using Duke's wasn't "southern". Duke's is originally from SC, while Hellman's originated in a deli in NYC, and Kraft is based out of Chicago.

I'm not a big mayo person, but when I do use it I use Duke's. I don't like the added sweetness of the others, and I think that Duke's has more of a rich, yolky taste. (Hence the more like homemade comment).

@Jimbo: So, you want white people to leave black predators alone? That's a win win for everybody in the neighborhood. Do you not think there might be some black people that would gives thanks to anybody who removed black predators from the streets?

Re: “Tennessee Tries to Bully Berry College

Bob Keim - establish an operation? It is a billboard; it is an advertisement. Where is the gray area - there is no operation in TN.

Never Fear - There aren't a lot of out-of-state colleges advertising on TN roadways, much less "hundreds". This is, apparently, one of the reasons. There is an established law and TN wants to enforce it.

Re: “Mayogate: The Mayo Debate Rages on Twitter

I'm a Duke's user, now that I know, but I have to say, I really still like Hellman's. I even think the light Hellman's is acceptable, with a squeeze of lemon added.

Re: “Mayogate: The Mayo Debate Rages on Twitter

You've got mayonnaise people and mustard people and seldom do they meet or agree condimentation. I'm a mustard people and would rather set my chest on fire than eat mayo of any type. Mayo on french fries, that's disgusting, no way to start a day.
Heavily infused horse radish mustard....MAN!!! Thats a condiment!!!!
