hold the mayo...

(scratches head) who puts mayo on a cheese steak sandwich? When I've eaten them in Philly, it was an argument over the bread or the kind of cheese, but never a problem with mayo or mustard being added. I went to the roach-coach (portable kitchen truck, visits buildings on a schedule) for lunch today, ordered a cheese steak, then took it back when it had mayonnaise present.

A couple of years ago, it would have felt as though I were being too demanding to take it back and insist on a properly prepared sandwich. That's progress... not that I understand why anyone uses mayo anyway, I don't see any redeeming virtue to the stuff other than as a lubricant...

Thank you. I also like it in tuna salad and egg salad. Holds everything together perfectly. I get it from the health food store, because I like their ingredients better, but I think I would like it even better if I made it myself.
