    That’s just silly, its not even that big. That’s a normal big jar of mayo.

    With chocolate bars, premade meals, drinks, ect, its a “size” that works as a gimmick but mayo?

      As an American, that’s a normal small size of mayo. Most of our “regular” sizes are almost double that, this is about the size of those smaller squeeze bottles:

        This bottle design is an utter bastard. You simply can’t get the last bits out of there no matter how much you wait or bang or make it cough and splutter to your food.

        I’m sure someone has actually designed it that way as opposed to designing it in a way that would be best for the consumer.

            Oh yeah I do, like a silicon scraper. But one of those wouldn’t fit into one of those tiny shop mayo squeezer bottles.

            The openings on these generic mayo bottles is like 3cm, whereas on the squeezer mayo bottle, it’s like less than one.

            But aye, the silicon scrapers “mini-spatulas” are great at scraping anything. Saves me like 5% of loss on with my blender, lol. Also really goot when you’re prepping things for freezing.

          I don’t need to worry about that because I just refill it from a larger container

            Yeah don’t do that multiple times. One or two times isn’t going to kill you but if you did it for years and had pieces of ancient mayo in there that sounds like a health concern.

            I’ll go get a new knife if I have to open up a new jar to finish something.

            Well then it’s not a terrible solution, sure, but if you’re going through the trouble already, why not use one of

            These. They’re practically free, way better shape, easy to wash, and prolly easier to fill given the whole size on those small bastards.

            Also making your own mayo / sauces is something I’m kinda used to doing nowadays. I used to think it takes a lot of effort but nah, just mix some mayos/sauces/spices/herbs/garlic, give a tiny blend if there’s hard parts and that’s it. Sometimes I fluff it up by gently adding Turkish yogurt after squeezing it out of the bottle (the yogurt loses consistency if you blend it, so I blend everything else, put it in a squeezer, than lightly mix that with the yoghurt)
