Am I right?
East Asia is the reason I can't eat mayonnaise anymore. Japan and Kewpie are bedfellows, China throws it on grapes, and Korea, always in last place, throws it in kimbap. Bakeries over in those napes of the woods also add it to bread filled with yakisoba, corn kernels, and the most dolorous, pork floss.
