Jokes on you, mayonnaise can't come at all.

It would be great for big potato salads.

Also, you can heat up the can with a torch.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

That's ridiculous. Who has a torch lying around? Just set it on the stove

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

You can also heat up the can on the stove. Don’t ‘cause gross but you could.

That's what the oven/steamer is for, silly.

No bro, wtf.
Use the toaster like a normal human.

pfft toasters... lifehack time:

this is why I like the plastic squeeze bottles, yeah, they're not a terribly efficient way of delivering whipped chicken embryo slurry, but they're perfect for carrying around underarm - like a mayo holster, your pit will keep it perfectly warm all day long. sprays right out whenever you want a gulp.

This is the real lifehack for sure, but I found that two arms could never hold enough WCES to get me through the day, so I've recently started storing a third bottle in my prison wallet.
I've also found it to be a more effective way to keep the 'naise warm, so I tend to alternate the bottle positions throughout the day for more equal warming.

a true mayo pro

Heck yeah, like a soda can so you can really chug it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

along these lines, I call mayo 'whipped chicken babies' because it makes my family retch. but it's true.

"protochicken sauce"

This made me curious, I'm going to see if our supplier has #10 cans of mayo tomorrow while I'm at work. The mayo we get is in plastic jugs, and we generally wouldn't need that much at once, I just want to know if it is something that is made.

I don't think you'll find it. Mayonnaise has a mechanism of lipid oxidation catalysed by iron ions present in egg yolks. Most mass produced mayonnaise contains EDTA to chelate metal ions and slow down lipid peroxidation. Lipid oxidation is also known as rancidity.

You can test this yourself by leaving a metal utensil in some mayo for a couple hours. It should turn black from a redox reaction

This guy mayos

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Interesting, I didn't know that. I guess my canned mayo dreams are dashed.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Don't cans use a coating on the inside to prevent contact between the contained material and the metal of the can itself? Like tomato products are pretty acidic and would also react with metals they come in contact with but are a common canned good. Same with soda pop.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Yeah all cans are plastic coated

I found it in a ~~glass can~~ jar in a store near me and I'm not going back. No more mayo stuck in the can.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I've never heard the phrase 'glass can' before, only 'jar'; is it common where you are from?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

No, I just forgot the word jar. Not a native english speaker.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Yeah that is weird, though it's common to putting things in jars and still refer to the process as canning. I guess jarring already has another, vastly different, meaning.
