Example: street corn in Mexico; some vendors use crema but many use mayo.
All due respect is given to those of you who love mayo but I'm just not one of them.
Whats your beef with mayo? I don’t use it as a condiment but no mayo would mean no tuna salad, no deviled eggs. I do think it’s used too liberally, especially in the south. A little goes a long way. BTW, I make my own at home: egg, olive oil, salt, dry mustard and lemon juice. The flavor differs from what you buy in a jar. If your issue is texture, I can’t help you.
