Hellmann's Told People to Put Mayonnaise in Their Coffee, and the Internet Melted Down

Last Thursday, the Twitter account for Hellmann's told people to put mayonnaise . . . in their COFFEE.  And they weren't kidding.  They added, "Nope, that wasn't a typo.  Mayo in your coffee.  It's called having a sophisticated [palate]."

 

 

According to Hellmann's, "The benefits of putting mayo in your coffee include:  Mayo in your coffee.  And coffee in your mayo."  (???)

 

 

Naturally, this LIT THE INTERNET ON FIRE, with some people claiming they're going to try it . . . others insisting that it's gross . . . and others joking about it.  One woman even sang a song about the situation.

 

 

 

 

Speaking of singers, Dionne Warwick was so disgusted that she BLOCKED Hellmann's.  She said, "I won't tolerate it."

 

 

 

 

It seems like this is just tongue-in-cheek, though . . . and that it's a response to University of Kentucky quarterback Will Levis revealing he's a big Mayo-in-Coffee-Guy on TikTok last week.  (Here's his video.)
