Mayo's a fine product, don't get me wrong, but it's made of some rather unusual food products (raw eggs, etc.) I could be wrong on that (open to correction), but that's basically like mixing some unusual raw-egg-based product with a tomato-paste product, then dipping your french fries in the resulting pale-pinkish mix.

I drank it and smiled, just to watch their reactions, but I know for a fact that ketchup and mayo were part of the mix (is mayo even a liquid? I dunno). I could get past the lemon juice, the pickle juice, the cherry juice, the tabasco sauce, even the mustard and the extra-sour-tear-jerker that they threw in for good measure... but that mayo-ketchup mix was something that I'll never forget for the rest of my days.

It's really quite yummy, although I think it's a Utah thing...Like Green Jello Salad with raisins and shredded carrots...I've only been able to find it at resturants in Utah. Everywhere else I go, they give me wierd looks (ok, that's the norm everywhere I go...) and say "Nope, never heard of it"

Mayo(or regular salad dressing) + Ketchup + relish = 1000 isl.

I, a Floridan, think I've seen(maybe even tried) that Jell-o - carrot mix. Not bad.
