You know, you'd be right to not want to eat it, what with it being horribly unhealthy.
However, you might be surprised how well mayo can work in that kind of dish. There's tomato pie recipes that are very mayo heavy, but they're amazing.
I can see this working, flavor wise. Still wouldn't eat it beyond a single taste, because damn.
I guess it could work if done right, I just find the thought of using mayo in a dessert somewhat revolting. Perhaps it's more savory than sweet, but then it still might end up too greasy to be enjoyable.
The way I see it there's just too many things that could go wrong with it – yes, it could be good but the chances seem small enough for me not to want to risk it.
Well, I wouldn't use up ingredients to make it just to try it, if you feel me. But if somebody sat it in front of me, I'd dig in and hope for the best lol. But I'm an adventurous eater. Wasn't always that way, but sometime in my late twenties, I started trying things I hadn't liked before, and it turned out my tastes had changed. So I kinda just stopped looking at new, or weird foods the same way.
There's a handful of things that were so nasty in smell, taste, or texture that I wouldn't try them again later down the road, though.
I mean I probably probably would do the same in this case, but I’d try a tiny piece just to be safe because my visceral reaction to the thought of this is still more gag reflex than anything else.
Something about the consistency of Mayo that seems extremely off-putting for it to be used in this way.
