Mayo and malt vinegar is gold

I was going to say that honey mustard is the worst condiment on Earth, but then someone mentioned tartar sauce on fries and I just vomited in my mouth.

 

[Jaydumo20]

I cover mine in homemade pickled habaneros. Try it if you love spice.

Aiolis are made with mayo, and Europeans have been dipping shredded fried potatos in aioli since the 17th century, so the answer is yes.

Lived in Belgium for three years when in the . Had mayo on my Pome Frites in Belgium and France many times. That was about 40 years ago and still do it on occasion now. It's an acquired taste. Also loved the escargot and even the Steak Tar Tar.

Wasabi and mayo mix together nicely, taste great with anything.

I believe in letting people choose their own condiments without judgement. Except for the guy who said tartar sauce. That guy is a freak.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

For me, no, but I respect the choice.

Never heard of it until a buddy of mine at UConn from the Rochester area (parents were French Canadian) did it at the North dining hall back in 2005.

I like my french fries simple: cut into any natural form, lightly salted, ketchup and sometimes cut that w/ some hot sauce. When it's too fancy, no me gustan.

C'mon man, it's a Belgium / French thing. We're Americans, even if off the boat

Ketchup on french fries
Ketchup, maybe with mayo, on burgers
Spicy Mustard on hot dogs
Mayo on many sandwiches

If you disagree with me, well that's on you

Aiolis are not made of mayo. Low grade restaurants have been trying to convince people of this, but aioli is olive oil and garlic.

Specifically Kewpie. Not normal American mayonnaise. Kewpie on fries is elite.

Some parts of the US and some other parts of the world, mayonnaise is the default condiment for fries.

For the life of me, it makes no sense, but I know it's a real thing.

I like a mayo base but in a sauce like a homemade horsey sauce.

Ketchup and mustard mixed with hot sauce, malt vinegar, Merkt's cheddar, tzatziki.

Good fries are amazing on their own or dipped in anything.

And then there’s gravy

It's not just a European thing. Go anywhere south of the Mason/Dixon line and there's a good chance southerner in the US use mayo as much as ketchup.

Kewpie is so different than regular mayo I almost give the Asians who use it a pass. And I've seen more than enough places in Japan and South Korea where it seems mayo is the default condiment served with fries.

Aioli is mayo- it's just mayo mixed with other seasonings or spices.

Sign up for this diet and won’t live long enough to see title 7.

I know the Midwest likes its miracle whip - for the life of me I don’t get it.

Heinz or plain with salt, period!

Malt Vinegar is elite

Living in london...it is all about vinegar...
Had mayo in i think Amsterdam. It was ok

Malt vinegar on your crisps is damn good too.

Got this to go with today's beverages.

Doesn't mayo already have vinegar in it?

Mayo isn't my first choice for fries, but if so, it would be this

 

[FreeKlaiber]

Royale with cheese

High quality or homemade absolutely. What you and I see at any restaurant (high or low end), pub, diner, etc. are majority mayo based.

Someone needs to settle this
