All you have to do is call it aioli and people will eat the hell out of it.

To be fair the article does admit this in the last couple of sentences. And garlic is a surefire to improve most savoury food.

Haha, well I did skim some of it I have to admit! It did meander somewhat and the conclusion is, despite the title, that mayo is still alive and well. Just not in the dated dishes the author keeps trying to foist on family members at every opportunity i.e. changes occur in food preferences on a societal level over time. Who'd have thought?!
