For all others you may enjoy a bit of history about Mayonnaise.

Most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise was

manufactured in England . In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000

jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico ,

which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its

stop in New York . This would have been the largest single shipment of

mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico . But as we know, the great ship

did not make it to New York . The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and

the cargo was forever lost. The people of Mexico , who were crazy about

mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate

at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National

Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day. The National

Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course,

as - Sinko De Mayo.

 

Have a great day !!
