    Mexicans put mayo on so much stuff.

    Elotes, esquites, all kinds of food that you would think could have sour cream, they’ll just put mayo cuz it’s cheaper.

      Not really. The reason Mayo is put on elote is because Crema Mexicana was unavailable in the US. But no one uses Mayo in Mexico. And before the internet, people didn't know how to make it as there was an English barrier many Mexicans experienced. But now I know Crema Mexican is a cup of heavy cream, 2 tablespoons of buttermilk, lime juice and a pinch of salt. Blend that together and put it in the fridge for a day. But even my Mexican mother hasn't been able to break that English barrier. And in a weird way, I'm teaching my mom to cook. Even though she can only cook Mexican food.

          they do put mayo in elotes and esquites, copious amounts of it in fact. that being said, other than hot dogs and hamburgers, i can't think of any other street food in mexico that uses mayo.
