Obama vs. Big Mayo
As we begin spring, I am feeling a bit nostalgic about the very spring-like campaign theme, "Hope and Change", which was in full swing around this time, back in 2008. Yes, our first known mayo-hating President, took both the political and culinary world by storm. Back then, Barack Obama would have his Presidential Aide, Reggie Love, by his side, the guy procuring all his sandwiches during those long travels around the country. But more importantly, on that same bus, those two men were not just breaking bread together, but were also plotting a war against an evil food cartel. And trust me, war is what Big Mayo got.
Some of the most important initiatives that came from the early years of the Obama White House, specifically targeted this calorie dense, fat laden condiment.
