Dear Group,
I love a good tuna salad sandwich and a cold beer. I make tuna
salad
by combining one can of solid albacore with a diced Spanish onion,
diced dill pickle, Mrs. Dash seasoning, white pepper, lemon or lime
juice and mayonnaise. I mix it all up and apply a liberal coating
to
freshly baked Bahamian bread and enjoy a meal fit for a king.
Being a live aboard sailor with no refrigeration, I sometimes wonder
about the mayonnaise. I hear people say that one can get terribly
ill
by eating non-refrigerated mayonnaise. Perhaps that is an old wives
tale. Why do I say this? Well, as an experiment I took a new 16
oz.
bottle of Deep South Real Mayonnaise, scooped out a couple heaping
tablespoons and used it to make tuna salad. I then put the lid back
on
and stowed the bottle back in the settee locker. Six months later,
I
used the contents of the same bottle to make another batch of tuna
salad. It had somewhat of a strong taste, but I did not get sick.
From this I would conclude that real mayonnaise lasts almost
forever.
I would like to hear from anyone with similar or opposing
experiences.
Perhaps you should attribute the above to the Good Captain NealŪ who
is the original author.

Huh? Who's he? Is he a relative of yours?
He used to post here. One of the group founders from what I hear the
most inspiring sailor to ever have posted here. Bobsprit is still
trying to live up to his standards but continues to struggle badly. You
can Google what you posted and find the Good Captain posted it way back
in 2002.
