How would you store it once its open?

I always thought as it was soo full of crap, it dont go off, so dont have to refrigerate it, or eat it that quick

Well just AFTER using some that was opened a few months ago and kept in a cupboard i read on the side, keep refrigerated at all times and use within 4weeks of opening

So is that just a precaution or am i lucky not to have poisoned myself by now from eating tainted Mayo

 

keep it in the fridge for up to 3 months!!!!


ewwwww cant belive youve eaten warm amyonaisse anyway! lol

 

I tend to get mine fresh from a Renault

 

The shits only last a day or so, hardly worth worrying about

Anyway it's got more flavour after a couple of days at room temperature

 

I keep it refrigerated and it it within a week Can't stand eatin stuff which has been left around!

If I open mustard I do the same and if it aint finished it goes in the bin.

 

mayo is foul anyway but warm mayo would be even worse....

 

well i am afraid its the end for you,never mind

 

seeing as it has egg in it i really wouldnt trust it if its been in cupboard for a few months!!

 

steve its made of raw egg too , ya cant even nuke the stuff either as that can be funny, never had a problem meself but was told that its iffy to microwave mayo

 

...and you ask why you are shitting green? LOL

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmayo and chips - gonna go sling some in the oven now (chips that is )

 

Well, if it was freshly made mayo, I'd be worried .... but as it is made of all good artificial stuff and full of preservatives, you'll be fine... Keep it in the fridge tho...

And yes they say it has eggs in it, but you will have to get up really really early to actually find traces of egg.... Its all dehydrated and reconstitued (sp?) bits....

 

see only a bird would know that infomation, us guys still think food grows in the fridge

mine grows on me desk as i get it delivered, waiting for my escalope bap with loads of mayo and salad as i type this

 

u aint from around here huh kid

 

mrs frog - dont think i like the sound of mayo anymore!!

 

Sorry to have shattered your mayo dreams / fantasies......

You can always learn to make fresh one... its very yummy....

 

Is that some sort of french dish?

 

hehe.. hun def keep it in teh fridge!!! ketchup is ok out of the fridge tho

there is the yummiest recipe for a blue peter chocolate cake that uses mayo.. so if u want to use it up id make that its scrummy

Mayo is made from raw eggs so iis a high risk food item

However as pointed out "most" branded mayo as egg powder so much lower risk as the protein content is lower which is what bacteria grow wioth

SO to be safe store in the fridge

Pickles and Jams you can keep in your cupboard once opened as the protein is VERY low and the sugar /Vinegar content means less water moisture therefore low bacterial growth rate

Hope this helps

nige is there anything ya dont know about

so helmans mayo is good or bad ( fooking nice though so im not bothered tbh, never lasts more than a week, cant think why im gaining weight though )


just had another chicken escalope bap with may as this thread made me hungry

 

Good Lord! Cant believe you left it out of the fridge let alone eat it afterwards

Eggs and Chicken are some of the worst foods to mess around with. Salmonella and all other types of wonderful bugs to mess with your stomach

The Mayo will last quite well in the fridge, preservatives and the like will mean it will last awhile. I personally wouldnt keep it opened (and in the fridge) for more than a month.

Not sure about mustards, but I keep mine on the fridge for quite awhile - as I dont use much at a time.

When it comes time for you to experiment with Shell foods (muscles, etc) - make sure you come back on here for some advice - as seafood poisoning is not nice

 

Bigbal LOL

rudey Shut it you umpa lumpa

Nige higher intelligence than most LOL

 

...or is just good at using google

Cool, well its a really big jar, well old, never been in the fridge, and ive ate about 2/3 of it in the last 3months or so and not dead yet, so MAYBE im invincible

 

Or maybe the dirty stinkin mayo you've been eating has been neutralised by the gallons of "tramp killer" cider that you seem to like drinking

 

Thats true

Even on the bus to gloucester on friday nite i was drinking tennants super

 

maybe thats how ure chubby aswell, mayo is chubbifying

 

Im sure two thirds of a jar in about 3/4 months has such a big effect on weight dave

thats explains why you jobless tho, your a thicko

besides, i actually weigh less than id like now, tho thats probably AIDS or somthing wasting me away

 

Touchy

Yup im thick, u jus got no common sense keeping mayo for months in a cupboard

 

im sure all that superT and cider aint gonna help either, think ya should donate ya liver to science
