...perhaps three years old but a gifted reader, when I saw the "Catsup" bottle on the kitchen table at dinner time. I started bawling uncontrollably at the thought of putting purified cat on my home fries!

"NO MOMMY I AM NOT EATING NO!! CAT!! SOUP!!!!!"

The helpless look on mommy's face when no amount of reassurance could get me to believe "Catsup = Ketchup and no, dammit, there is no cat," was by far the best part, looking back.

But as for this new mayo replacement, it sounds lovely -- except that I'm sure it's oil-based and therefore still extremely high in fat. That makes it completely unacceptable on the McDougall way of eating.
