Mayo is delicious! You can't have tuna or egg or chicken salad without mayo!

Cheesesteaks should have shredded beef and lots of melted provolone and nothing else. Unless they're on garlic bread, which is also okay.

You can if you use mustard, like I do.

::faints:: That's ... a lot of mustard.

Mustard and mayo in egg salad!

Call me when In 'N Out makes a chicken sandwich. I have yet to go there.

I used to be more into ketchup than I am now. Now I like ketchup with fries and that's about it, I think. I like mustard on hot dogs/sausage, along with grilled onions and sauerkraut if it's there and appropriate.

Mmm, mustard on bratwurst. Nom nom nom.

A true Chicago hot dog joint doesn't even have ketchup in stock, except for the little packets so you can put them on your fries. The belief is that ketchup doesn't go well with the all-beef flavor of the Vienna Beef hot dog (which is what 99% of the hot dog joints use).

As an only recent user of mustard, however, I do have to admit that I prefer ketchup on my hot dog over mustard, at least the yellow type (brown mustard is nigh impossible to find at a hot dog place). Also, put on onion, pickle spear, and celery salt, but leave off the sport peppers, relish, and tomatoes.

In 'n Out is good because of the freshness and the simplicity. The shakes are made with ice cream, not shake mix. The meat isn't frozen. The lettuce and tomatoes are always fresh. Basically, it's burgers made the way they were made all over the US before fast food took over.

Best of all, if you order animal-style, they coat the burger with mustard before they grill it, then add grilled onions to the the topping and it is seriously deelish.

Word! I have no clue why people think green peppers are a default with cheesesteaks. There were always a pile of onions on the grill in all the diners I went to in Philly for those who wanted, but I didn't see any peppers ready to go.

Egg salad, as per my mother and the lady at the lunch counter when I was a kid: Eggs, mustard, mayo, sweet relish. Celery seed if you're being high falutin'.

Tuna salad: extract the mustard.

Allyson, I would suggest talking to G

You know, they have done so many nice things for me over the years that I haven't been able to reciprocate, I just would feel uncomfortable asking for a favor.
