It seems like it’d be useful to have a jar of béarnaise or hollandaise, but I have to make those. Can’t buy good béarnaise or hollandaise. Good mayo is easy to get tho. WTF?

    I was just thinking… Since we call mayonnaise, “mayo,” does that mean in an alternate timeline where hollandaise or bearnaise got popular instead, would they call them, “Holland” and “bear”?

      It would have been awesome :)

      Hey, baby, when you’re at the store, pick up some more bear.

      Or, Dammit, we’re out of Holland, and we’ve got guests coming!
