Mayonnaise is for making tuna buttes.

Add a sliced boiled egg, and some lettuce as well if you want to be healthy.
Thing is, I'm strangely allergic to mayo. I've no idea why as I can eat eggs and oil (which is all it is) but if I eat mayo I feel terribly sick. I don't throw up or anything, but I just feel sick and can't eat anything until it passes. I make homemade mayonnaise quite often as others here like it - but that has the same effect on me. The only other thing which has a similar effect is taramasalata - which has fish eggs in it combined with oil. Strange...

Well I think its odd. If I can eat oil and egg yolks separately, then why does it make my stomach react if they are mixed together in an emulsion? I can eat eggs fried in oil, no problem. Why should it make any difference if they form an emulsion (taramasalata is also an emulsion)?:scratch:

I'd say you've grown used to reacting that way, it's now done without even thinking about it.

The thing is, that it isn't psychological - I have accidentally eaten mayo in a sandwich and not realised it was there until I started feeling sick and checked the packaging.
I think you need to sleeeepp on it.
