As we approach the end of our summer hiatus, the mayo fight has been cranked up even another notch. I am excited to announce that scores of groups have been popping up left and right on Facebook and MySpace, bringing together people from all walks of life who share a common enemy. Many of these group memberships are in triple digits, some even four. If you are searching for these holy armies on any of the social networks, it's best to do a key word search that's a bit more specific than “mayo.” You see, in addition to being Satan's spew, Mayo also happens to be a county in Ireland and an obscure college in India. (although not obscure enough to prevent their annoying alumni from organizing facebook groups for their ill-conceived university name.) You will even come across a few sick groups who have a “love of mayo” theme but please don't be scared. This is actually another positive function of social networking in our War Against Mayo, which we learned way back in the Godfather I and II. (“Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.”) So for a more targeted search, it's best to add words like “sucks” , “hate” and “anti” against the terms “mayo” and “mayonnaise.” (Some groups spell out the full name of the beast.) So for example, some successful searches would be “mayo sucks” and “hate mayonnaise” You will be amazed about how many groups come up during these filtered searches who think the same way as we do. One of the more successful hate groups on Facebook is based out of Malibu California.(their logo is above) They actually organized a huge protest in front of the Heinz factory in downtown Los Angeles on August 21st. (marching, sign-age, the whole 9 yards) Remember that Heinz is one third of Big Mayo so maybe next year ‘s protest can include Hellmann's and Kraft foods as well. Add some live music and boom, we’ll have the makings of a full fledged coordinated global protest against the corporate giants behind Big Mayo.
