      Yeah. If you’re in the top 10, you definitely have a suspicion.

        If someone is eating that much mayo it’d have to be daily, and I think if someone eats mayo daily they’d know they’re eating a lot

          I love mayo on sandwiches but I rarely finish a jar until a few years past it’s best by date.

          Follow up question - is this absolute mayo consumption, or does it scale with food intake?

          Because I bet there’s definitely people out there who eat mayo like pudding for lunch and they would think they’re on the short list

          But I could see there being someone out there who regularly kills multiple jars of mayo in a sitting by knocking out a huge bowl of chips and dip, but doesn’t consciously recognize their alarming daily mayo intake

          I could see the #1 being in either group… Some people have a disturbing relationship with condiments, but some people eat terrifying amounts of unhealthy food, and I’ve seen someone kill a tub of potato salad as a mid interview snack (it was some documentary about people who can no longer fit through their doorways)

    I bet they do know it.
    I bet there’s an online community somewhere with several hundred competitive mayonnaise eaters.

    Edit: Yup. I guess this needs some kind of warning. Don’t click if you don’t want to see someone empty multiple big jars of mayonnaise with a spoon in under 3 minutes.

      I thought I could do it. I really did. As soon as that first spoonful hit her mouth though, I was out.

        I made it through the first jar ok, but as soon as she started on the second I hurked a little…

      She was not the Hutt I imagined before clicking the link. For a moment there I even thought it wasn’t going to be gross.

      And I can confidently say she surpassed the amount of mayo I’ve had in my entire life, by quite some margin too.

      Ok, sure, that’s a lot of mayo. But I didn’t think OP was referring to an amount consumed in one sitting. Surely there’s someone out there that just loves macaroni salad or coleslaw who ends up eating way more on a longer timescale.

        Chances that these competitive mayo eaters also love mayonaise enough to put it on those foods you mention is pretty high

        Hey just wanted to remind you about that mayonnaise video when you read this. Give in to the morbid curiosity. The call of the void burns for you concede and watch the video in full. See how gross it really is for yourself.

      me trying to prepare myself for the video: It’s just yogurt. It’s just yogurt. It’s just yogurt.

      Eating starts

      me: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

      Thanks… but I think I’ll stay in the casual, unrated mayonnaise game.

        Come join the Mayo Club.

        The first rule of Mayo Club is; just have some fun, no pressure, just good people enjoying a good condiment.

      I’d imagine the leader is 2-3 times the consumption of the runner up, but there’s no way to tell.

    That’s true for Miracle Whip too, and that stuff tastes like goblin cum (or so I’ve heard from a “friend”).

    I am afraid to admit that I can finish a sizeable jar of mayo in 2-3 days less sometimes, but I don’t do it every week I promise… Please stop calling me out. It’s just comfort food I swear

    Oh they have a pretty good idea. They’re currenlty in post-op recovery in a cardiac cath lab getting sternly reprimanded by their doctor that balloon angioplasty can only do so much and this person has to make lifestyle changes or they their heart disease will end their life early.

    My friend has a story about a coworker who would bring a tub of mayonnaise into work and mix it with tuna and sometimes chickpeas for lunch. He wouldn’t finish the tub every day but he would go through a lot of them every month so I think that guy’s in the running.

        Mayonnaise isn’t really bad for you. There’s a lot of fat in it, but that’s totally independent from being fat.

          It’s more about the absence of most other nutrients, assuming he keeps a similar life style at home.

          Also, I’m not sure what the current opinion about eggs and colesterol is. I’ve heard both sides thousands of times and don’t eat them anyways.

        I definitely don’t put mayo on them, reminds me of the horror when I went to Brazil.

        The family I was staying with made pizza one day and they brought out some condiments, mayo was one of them and I just assumed they brought everything because who knows what I would like. But then they proceeded to squirt mayo on their slices and I gasped. Luckily I had stashed a bottle of hot sauce from earlier so I used some of that and they were shocked that I would eat ‘super spicy’ sauce, it was like tobasco so definitely not spicy, I guess everyone is different. We also brought them hot cheetos as a little gift for the kids and they were rinsing their mouths out in the sink. We thought they were just messing around but the kids insisted it was spicy
