Hellmann's Mayonnaise - a bit of history.
>
> Most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England.
> In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera
> Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New
> York. This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico.
>
> But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank,
> and the cargo was forever lost. The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were
> eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that
> they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day.
>
> The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as -
>
> Sinko De Mayo.

> WHAT??? You expected something educational from me?

For some real education
Cinco is Spanish for Five
Mayo.. May
De, Of or From
Cinco De Mayo 5th of May.
It is, however, a good joke.. Thanks for posting it.

Hey wayne, I said it was a good joke.
I could have said it was a bad pun, but you should know that the only good puns are bad puns right.

Anyone remember the old Hellman's commercial from the mid 60's where a guy is in a pool on a floating lounge chair, and yells "Hey, where's the Hellman's?" and a mini submarine surfaces, the conning tower opens, and a hand appears, holding a Hellman's mayo jar?
My uncle and my father were in the film production support business at the time, one day my dad brought home a Dodge motor home with the submarine resting on the bed in the back, he was in charge of the motor home and the sub for the production. Pretty heady stuff for a third grader.
