Title: Mayo Margarita Post by: dystopia on August 14, 2007, 09:45:24 AM Mayo margaritas? Japan indulges its creamy passion http://www.reuters.com/article/lifestyleMolt/idUST10775120070813?feedType=RSS&feedName=lifestyleMolt Quote TOKYO (Reuters Life!) - When Koji Nakamura mixes up a margarita cocktail, he adds a special ingredient -- mayonnaise. "Mayogarita", a white drink with a hint of the creamy dressing, is one of several cocktails Nakamura serves in his "Mayonnaise Kitchen" restaurant in suburban Tokyo, which features mayonnaise on everything from toast and spaghetti to fondue. ... ... Nakamura's tiny restaurant, with fewer than a dozen tables and decorated with cut-outs shaped like mayonnaise bottles, also offers "Mayoty Dog", which tastes like the vodka-based cocktail Salty Dog but is served in a glass with mayonnaise on its rim instead of salt. Patrons of the seven-year-old restaurant can buy their own bottle of mayonnaise for 300 yen ($2.53) -- similar to bars that keep regular customers' bottles of whisky or sake.

Mayo is the devil's creation. 'Orrible stuff. Just say no to white condiments. Title: Re: Mayo Margarita Post by: stroh on August 14, 2007, 10:12:06 AM All right now. Just because they be mixin' it all up in they drink like fools don't make all them condiments bad.
Don't be hatin' on the may'naise. Title: Re: Mayo Margarita Post by: Uisce Beatha on August 14, 2007, 10:14:22 AM All right now. Just because they be mixin' it all up in they drink like fools don't make all them condiments bad. Don't be hatin' on the may'naise. Sorry, that chit is foulness extreme. So too its cousins Miracle Whip, ranch dressing, Thousand Island, sour cream... I can go forever. If God wanted us to put anything but butter on our sandwiches he wouldn't have invented them in England.

Title: Re: Mayo Margarita Post by: worst_golfer_ever on August 14, 2007, 11:00:56 AM And here we thought ice in wine was bad.
I'm wondering if mayo curdles in vodka. Eeew. Title: Re: Mayo Margarita Post by: gleek on August 14, 2007, 11:30:43 AM OMG, MY EYES!!! Mayo is the devil's creation. 'Orrible stuff. Just say no to white condiments. Are you kidding? Mayonnaise the ONLY significant French invention in the past 250 years. Except for, maybe, French kissing and the bikini. OK, pasteurized milk is pretty significant too. Oh, I guess Braille is pretty important for the blind. Hmmm, come to think of it, Rudolf Diesel was technically French. All right. Mayonnaise is one of the top 10 most significant French inventions in the past 250 years. Title: Re: Mayo Margarita Post by: Uisce Beatha on August 14, 2007, 11:38:26 AM All right. Mayonnaise is one of the top 10 most significant French inventions in the past 250 years. Well, I'll give you that. I figure Thierry Henry is at #1 and the rest of the list drops off sharply from there. So #10 on the France list is, like, #389 on the Myanmar list.

Good thing for the Steelers that Bradshaw used to spray his passes all over the place. Otherwise, Frenchy would have caught that pass.

And there we are, another French Connection. Title: Re: Mayo Margarita Post by: gleek on August 14, 2007, 05:19:22 PM John Madden surrenders. And there we are, another French Connection.

Francisco Franco was Spanish, and Franco Harris was Italian. However, in the latter part of his career, Harris used to run out of bounds instead of taking a hit.

Yeah, I know "Franco-" is a prefix meaning "French", as in "Francophile" (admirer of all things French), but I needed a good lead-in for my Franco Harris insult. :D Title: Re: Mayo Margarita Post by: stroh on August 14, 2007, 08:18:58 PM And Franco-American made SpaghettiOs!

I actually used to be a huge Steeler fan myself, so I figure I'm allowed to rip on the same Pittsburgh players I used to root for. You know. It's kind of like how it's OK for African-American to use the "N-word" or people named Rene can call each other "tapette".
