I am still stunned almost to the point of disbelief when I order and Italian sub and am asked, "Do you want mayonnaise on that?"

I grew up Italian subs in a very Italian suburb of Boston. Mayonnaise on an Italian sub was unheard of. The thought of mayonnaise on cappicola makes me ill.

I don' eat tuna, but I make chicken salad that is very similar to this.
