I’m sorry if it seems like I’m dumping on you. I’m not.
Okay, I always take you at your word, so I hope we're good (not that I thought we were bad).

let's pivot this discussion to kraft bbq sauce, as god and nature intended
Ever mix it with mayo? It's good.

Alternate take: I hear Orchids of Asia has the best Kraft sauce available.
I like Paul Newman's bbq sauce on hamburgers. I'd like to think it imparts some of his ideal masculinity to the burger.

I actually don’t mind generic BBQ sauce or steak sauce on burgers.

I can'y figure out why anyone would want ketchup over BBQ sauce. I go with Sweet Baby Ray's for my mass produced BBQ sauce.

I'm ok with this.
It saddens me that someone would put bbq sauce on a steak. I know Doc is joking but I also know there's people who do it.
I've definitely had steaks that warranted it. A good steak should never be "enhanced" but sometimes you get a crappy cook.
I recall a fundraiser dinner the Boss and I went to where the "steak" was assmeat. Any and all condiments were acceptable to cover up the natural … qualities of the meat.
Yeah I'll go hungry. I'm proud to say my 13 yo kid didn't know what A1 was until the other day when he saw it on a menu and asked me. One of the great things about a steak is you really only need like 3 things for a great steak. Heat, salt, pepper.
A1 is good with fries, though.

I think people can and do dislike mayo sincerely, I just think performative hate pays Drew's bills so he lacks credibility. I actually don't believe a bunch of people are trying to force him to eat mayo. He's lying because he has a brand.
Yeah. My issue is that mayo is one of the easiest things to avoid eating if you just ask them to hold it, and so many people turn it into a hill to die on.

My only issue ever with cilantro for example was that it was often snuck into food without warning (which is rare these days - it’s now listed on menus more often).
You can tell places to hold the mayo but lots of times I find the people doing the food prep are too used to making something a certain way and just make it. It happens to me a lot. A menu only days cheeseburger and I tell them I dont want the cheese or no salt on the fries because so many places overdo salt and a majority of the time I get the cheese and the salt. I ve had the same issue with mayo on burgers and other "special sauces".
Yup yup yup. Plus a lot of prepacked food comes with the mayo already globbed on, when all condiments should be optional. They're the only thing you can't remove if you don't like it.

Plus mayo is so god damn omnipresent, you have to ask every fucking time.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

And sometimes it's not on the menu, so first you have to ask if it comes with mayo, and then ask for NO mayo. Our lives are hard.
