She was a women’s and gender studies major in college. Naturally, she loathes mayonnaise.

Naturally? Is it some feminist thing to loathe mayo? Why?

[-] Tudsamfa@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago

Because it's hens and cows that are farmed for their products, veganism is a feminist issue.

Feminism is notoriously concerned with chromosomes rather than personhood. /s

Because mayo is strongly associated with white people and especially conservatives. There’s the whole meme about not eating any food spicier than mayo.

It's because mayo is just disgusting. It like 99% fat and tons of calories. People from New generations actually don't want to look like fat dwarfs. Everyone in the 80s and 90s was fat, and much of this is because they ate mayo and stuff like that, and food that had basically no nutrition so they would eat 5000 calories of food and still be nearly starving.

I mean, so are nuts, olives, plenty of foods are high in fat. I don't think it was mayonnaise making people fat.l, it's from way before the 80s. (And BTW, people are fatter now, at least where I live.) I can make mayonnaise at home, it's food, and hasn't ever made me fat.

The prevalence of obesity in American adults (age 20–74, both genders) rose from 15.0% in 1976–1980, to 23.3% in 1988–1994, and to 30.9% in 1999–2000. 40.3% in 1994.

It’s not though. Maybe miracle whip, but that’s garbage. Not real mayo.

It is extremely high in fat though. But the way Americans eat it is the real problem. You’re supposed to eat a small amount as a condiment to add flavour. Americans treat it like they treat all condiments, the same way Italians treat pasta sauce.

I love mayonnaise but I eat maybe a tablespoon of it at most for an entire sandwich (spread very thinly over the bread) and I use it instead of butter, not in addition to butter.

That's fine I mean I have to get fast food with no condiments besides cheese and onions because they put so much damn sauce on them. Like if you get a taco bell burrito it will be 50% chipotle. I can't even eat it. If I forget to ask for no chipotle I have to throw it away lol.

I can’t even remember the last time I had fast food. Must have been at least 2-3 years ago.

I have had shawarma though. I tell them to put all the sauce on the side and just add what I want.

Because mayonnaise looks like and is sometimes associated with cum and patriarchy. Is my guess.
