Smith family lore has it that my ancestors became deadly ill at a picnic, with the likely cause being mayonnaise that had expired. Since then, my family has called mayo "white death", and I grew up with a deep psychologically-rooted aversion to mayonnaise.

A friend calls it "the devil's semen."

The devil's semen... Holy shit that made me laugh. I can never look at BLTs the same.

I have shot myself in the foot in order to mayo a point.

Crave the orange dipping sauce? It’s Trump sweat. Maybe that will hinder an appetite 😜

I share you hate of the toff gastropub boho rubbish. Is the sneering beard man bun thing gone yet?

In utter rejection I started only dining at the worst greasy spoon diners ( non chain ) as I traveled the USA. Gunna write a book called " The world of the Rough AF Waitress"

But then eating at the super gross diners almost killed me as I'm a home gardening al organic kind of guy but still think its a good idea to order the Onion rings.. you know why ... because of the Aioli type dressing....round house kick to the guts. But still cant stop.

The way out of this trap is my new system. NO DINING OUT IN AMERICA.

I Save up and go to Portugal or Turkey. Where I can make all sorts of other new food based mistakes :)

Currently in South Africa eating Biltong from a bag that I got from a cheap supermarket.

I can already feel the weird Boer spices mutating my immune system.
