thanks but I'm sure I'll find it locally - its more a journey than destination thing with me now.

Send me your address. I don't mind. If you want it, that is. But Cletus is right. Mayo is not hard to make.

found it - 1/2 mile from my house no less - at Family Dollar of all places

All you need are egg yolks, a neutral oil (grapeseed is best, IMO), some acid in a combo of a little vinegar and lemon juice, a little good mustard, and some salt. You can also add garlic or herbs for additional flavor but that's optional. Anyway, add all the stuff less the oil and whisk is all together (you can use a food processor as well) until it's smooth and well composed. Then, while still whisking or running the food processor, slowly add the oil - at first, a few drops at a time and then, as it comes together, a steady drizzle. Before too long, you'll recognize this as mayo. Taste it, add seasoning if necessary (salt probably), and do the final blend. It will be good.

I agree with Dave that raw tomatoes suck ass. No thanks.

Crazy talk. Tomatoes are proof that Odin exists and that he wants us to be happy.

I ate one yesterday like an apple. a fistful of mater in one hand, salt shaker in the other

Exactly.

Fresh, ultra-soft white bread, salt, pepper, and Duke's mayo make for a nice lunch.

Just say NO to raw tomatoes.

"I ate one yesterday like an apple. a fistful of mater in one hand, salt shaker in the other"

That's almost every day during the summer and fall. I can easily eat upward of a dozen tomatoes in that fashion in a day, but I usually slice them and lay them out on a plate to ensure more even coverage of salt and pepper. I do prefer AA's method, but if I did that, I'd be eating a loaf of bread a day, so I try to limit myself to only one or two of those...

I use no salt now to keep my sodium intake down

Even though I don't like eating them like an apple. It's hard to have a good sandwich without tomato slices involved.

Damnit to hell. I want a tomato sandwich now....

"I use no salt now to keep my sodium intake down"

I use low sodium salt, it's half sodium, half potassium. And I use that sparingly, for the reason you mention...

Raw tomatos are the leading cause of colon cancer.

AlabamAlum · Post by **AlabamAlum** » Mon Sep 22, 2014 2:51 pm

If you're fairly active, have decent kidneys and no heart failure, sodium intake isn't that big of a deal.
