Eggs up ... so mayo goes up, too?

The cost of mayo went up literally overnight by almost 25%!

Well, for that particular premium brand, that is.

It was a real shocker for me, as the cost of my mayo had been - until today - stable. I was left pondering, "What to do?? What to dooooo ..." because mayo has always been the favorite condiment on my burgers and therefore is in the, "Uncle, extra please aaa ..." category.

So what did I do? I regret to say that, for the first time in Uncle Burger's history, I had to replace the preferred brand of mayo with another. It is a top-shelf brand, I assure you - just not as prominent in consumer marketing and advertising.

I will switch back to the preferred brand the moment they get their act together and stop squeezing its loyal consumers with already thin business margins and tight pockets ...
