I know I've been out of the country for a while, so some things go right past me now in movies, but this one I seriously don't get!

and i'm not stereotyping anything here. just trying to figure out why that was supposed to be funny in an otherwise hilarious movie.
i'd never even given mayo a thought until i saw it!

It is just a stereotypical presentation on blacks for the sake of humor. The same as fried chicken, watermelon, and so forth.

Please do not stereotype an entire race of people by what you see in the movies. If I did that based on 8 Mile, what do you think some of my conclusions would be? Some people like it; some people don't. Ethnicity is not the issue. I know African Americans who eat mayonnaise. It is a parody.

white people love mayo, black people cant stand it. (or so how it goes in the movies) Undercover Brother is pretending to be white-washed so he has to eat mayo.
