Do you like mayo cake?

SweetNicole · Jun 17, 2019

Debate among people tonight:

Do you like mayo cake?

I say it is fine, and a simple substitute for eggs. Others say it is disgusting.

Context:

The bleak breadline years of the Great Depression produced the ghastly sounding Mayonnaise Cake. "People were just trying to make do using mayo instead of eggs and oil," says Byrn. "Manufacturers even put the recipe on the mayo containers.

Mayo has both oil and eggs which is normally used in cake making, except in mayo it is already mixed together.

All mayonnaise is, is a mixture of oil, egg and some form of acid.

All of which are normal cake ingredients.

Yes, but... why wouldn't I just use the actual eggs and oil?

You know what, I have a friend whose Facebook page has become a bastion of terrible foods people ruin for no good reason at all other than that they are terrible people with terrible tastes, because her horrified reactions are the best.

This belongs there.

KillLaCam · Jun 17, 2019

I hope it doesn't taste like mayo

OrangeAtlas · Jun 17, 2019

I am furious.

Oh, see, I don't have mayo in the house in the first place. I live a mayo-free life.

The forum has to close now I think

No, it tastes like a super moist chocolate cake.

Mayo in cake is legit people.

Bigchicity · Jun 17, 2019

JUST USE EGGS

This is upsetting.

TheMango55 · Jun 17, 2019

Do the cakes taste like vinegar?

Dr. Monkey · Jun 17, 2019

Some of y'all are in here acting like this is the end times, when a simple googlin' would tell you this is a whole thing that people do.

I mean, I wouldn't (because why would I) but the blueberry mac and cheese is the abomination here. Direct your ire properly.

Zhukov · Jun 17, 2019

I mean... I'd try it if someone handed me a slice.

It doesn't actually taste like mayo does it?

Spenny · Jun 17, 2019

I've never had it but it's probably fine. I love mayonnaise.

OrangeAtlas · Jun 17, 2019

It's not the Depression anymore just use eggs and oil Jesus Christ.

Not I, sir Science Doggo. None of that for this monkey. I don't even put mayo in my spinach dip. Mayo's nasty.

Doggg · Jun 17, 2019

I'd definitely give it a try.

depending on the cheese it could be good since cheese and fruit can be paired together pretty often

it tastes fine
you just think it tastes bad because it says "mayo"
but all mayo is really is eggs and oil
making a normal cake you use eggs and oil too
mayo just had it already mixed together and makes the cake v moist

OrangeAtlas · Jun 17, 2019

Put a MAGA hat on the cake.

Pantaghana · Jun 17, 2019

Who wouldn't want a layered bologna cake with mayonnaise and mustard icing?

I can feel my arteries clogging up already.

i used to really dislike mayo when i was younger, but ive gotten to like it when it comes to recipes, mixed with other ingredients

can't make a good fry sauce without it

i'd never eat mayo alone, though. my sisters used to dip their fries in mayo, that's not my jazz

mayo alone for fries is gross
mayo for cooking (and fry sauce) is perfectly fine
aren't they selling ketchup+mayo mixtures now straight out of the bottle?

Do you like mayo cake?

Do you like mayo cake?

Yes.

No.

I have not had it.
