A little known fact is that back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York. This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York.
The ship hit an iceberg and sank and the cargo was forever lost. The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day.
The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5 and is known, of course, as Sinko de Mayo.
SHIT ,you had me there for a second ,i was thinking what an interesting side story to one of the largest Murders in history ,just glad it wasn't DUKES ,LMAO.
TX unfortunately doesn't know real Mexican food with this TexMex garbage everywhere. Sure, queso is good but that's all ya got besides some tasty sweet corn. If you head down to Pharr, TX or McAllen you get some damn good Mexican food. Or just go to San Diego or Fresno, CA to get the same.
Cinco de Mayo in America is merely an excuse for adults to drink too much. The only thing I celebrate about May 5 is my younger brother's birthday on this day.
Domt you mean Cinco de Mayonnaise? That's what a lot of Mexicans call it now because more White Americans celebrate the holiday than do ethnic Mexicans.
There is no shortage of holidays White America will repurpose as their own.

I like the rename - Cinco Deporto - better. It was trending on X earlier.
