so far i've seen two clips from the new conan show, and both have been about vaginas, which has gotta signify something, doesn't it?

Interesting. I don't have cable/satellite so I wouldn't know. In fact, I don't think I ever watched TBS shows before.

Yes, unless it airs more than once. I rarely watch TV, but I've caught segments a little after 8. Doesn't surprise me though; I think the TBS programming works like that in general (based on EST). What the east coast watches at 11, we watch at 8.

Really? I thought TBS airs it at 11:00 PM on pacific time zone.

In reply to this comment by MikesHL13:
Funny. I had debated the "latenight", but here on Pacific Coast (PT) Conan is on about 8pm, so I wasn't sure if that qualified.

NBC wouldn't show this.

How does this struggle to sift? There is no justice.

Thanks mate, thought it was just me!

According to wikipedia, bearnaise is "a sauce made of clarified butter emulsified in egg yolks and flavored with herbs".
It is not made of bears and mayonnaise.


Someone has obviously tampered with the article.

LIES!

I was going to say that sounds absolutely disgusting, but after hearing its a different beast than the stuff I'm used to I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. Still hot mayo... ugh.


Disgusting? Really?

Isn't Shrimp Salad the same exact thing? Or at least it does here in America. Come to think of it, potato salad, chicken salad, tuna salad, coleslaw, egg salad and fruit salad all contain mayonnaise.

Or perhaps you were only referring to mayo being served in hot temperature. Then sure, it's kinda gross.

But even still, we eat lots of dishes that contains with mayo in hot temperature without even realizing it. If your hamburgers have hot-off-the-grill beef paddies and you eat it with mayo, then you've got yourself hot mayo.

if you polish unicorn's horn very fast it produces a magical unicorn mayonnaise.

i honestly will never understand people's spider/insect/snake phobias.
but then again, i'm afriad of pickles and mayonaisse.


Rational and Irrational phobias, spiders/snakes/insects are potentially dangerous, it's hard to tell which are and aren't.

I've got a weird quasi-phobia of these things - spiders, anything larger than a £2 coin I don't like being on me. Anything smaller than that no problem. However, I don't mind it near me, or just being where I can see it.

Snakes, don't mind at all, wouldn't be keen on ones with nasty bites or poison however.

Insects, fine with the ones I know are safe and don't nip ya.

These all seem like rational phobias to me, unlike pickles and mayonnaise which seem kinda irrational to me...unless a pickle tried to drown you in a vat of mayonnaise you may as well have a phobia of something like the sound oranges make or the inside of envelopes.

Oh, I see…

Well, since some of you seem to have attended the Fred Rogers school of comedy, I’ll try to put it in a more friendly, less sarcastic light:

Although pre-grated cheese is widely popular with the discerning American public(I’m not sure about other countries), I think the general consensus among food bloggers and websites is that pre-grated cheese loses a lot of flavor. Not to mention the fact that buying it whole is more economical, and whole cheeses don’t contain the usual anti-caking ingredients or extra preservatives of most grated varieties.

http://cheaphealthygood.blogspot.com/2009/08/save-money-on-food-buy-it-whole-rather.html

Now, call me old fashioned, but I’m a person who likes to save money. I wouldn’t pay twice the price for gas just to have someone pump it for me. Nor would I pay a home nurse to wash me just because I find it difficult to bathe myself. Even though it can be hard, I still have full use of my arms and brain, so I find I can do pretty well on my own with a washrag or lather sponge.

That said, there are some occasions where I do consider buying pre-grated cheese. For instance, many brands offer the “Mexican Four Cheese Blend” variety. And I find myself thinking, “That’s great! I can’t possibly use four different, whole blocks of cheese on one Mex-a-roni casserole. And if I just overlook the fact that most of these cheeses like ‘Monterey Jack‘, ‘Pepper Jack‘, and ‘Cheddar’ aren’t actually served anywhere in Mexico, I can create quite the tasty impression of a suburban, chipotle abortion in no time. And to make it even easier, Taco Bell now sells mild sauce IN-THE-STORE! Just one aisle over!!!”

Also, I’m willing to accept the idea that some people just have a hard time grating cheese themselves. I started doing it when I was four, to help my mother out in the kitchen, so sometimes I overlook the fact that some people just might not know how. That’s why I’ve included the links below.

Now, these might not get you all the way there. So a few tips of my own are:

1. Try to grate the cheese in one direction only. Against the teeth. This will prevent the unnecessary action of sliding the cheese up the grater the wrong way.

2. Always wash the grater immediately. Unlike mayonnaise, Velveeta and French-fry grease, cheese will start to harden-up after a short period of time and become difficult to wash off.

Give it a shot. With a little hard work you’ll be grating cheese in no time flat. I don’t know about you, but I’ll be saving the extra money to go see the American version of “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” at the IMAX.

Yum...Green Ketchup and Mayonnaise pancakes!

"..mayonnaise. I've seen 'em do it man".

I shot a girl in the head three times with the mayonnaise gun at McDonald's.

I concur.

And having tasted french fries with cucumber mayonnaise I wouldn't eat them with anything else, if the damn stuff didn't cost so much.
