   I remember watching a british science show for kids about potato salad and the risk of food poisoining. Mayo is acidic (vinegar, lemon juice), making your food safer. It’s the other ingredients (potato, chicken, etc.) which are less acidic that neutralize the mayo’s acid and provide bacteria with an environment to thrive in. And then there’s poor food hygiene… I love mayo, I put that s*** on everything!
