Everyone knows the Titanic, The movie's brought it fame The loss of life was tragic, And they also lost Mayonannaise. Hellmann's Mayo was from England, The Titanic had ten thousand jars, It was lost in the sinking Sandwich lovers grieved afar. The whole world mourned the loss "How'd we make salads with our potatoes?" They declared a day of mourning: And called it "Sinko de Mayo." |

Every Sinko de Mayo day, I wear black and send prayers up to the heavens in remembrance of all the jars that perished! ---Such a waste of taste! EA |

Toe, You have a turn of mind my friend that is the living end. And this will stay within my head, whenever I put mayo on my bread. |

"Food tastes better with Hellman's....tell that to larry the lettuce?" anyone hear those radio adds? anyway Toerag, I still think tomato sauce is better on food. Enjoyed the read. El riesgo vive siempre! |
