Hate Mayo? Kraft Offers New 'Overcoming Mayophobia' Kit
Fans can enter to win a kit to help them convince the mayo-haters in their life to reconsider.

CHICAGO, IL — Does the thought of spreading Kraft Mayo on a sandwich make your stomach turn? Does your irrational fear of this simple sauce keep you from enjoying the finer things in life? If you answered yes, you may suffer from "Mayophobia."
Kraft Mayo knows not everyone shares our unconditional love for this smooth and velvety condiment, and we'd like to help those mayNO-sayers reconsider and smooth out their irrational fear … one sandwich at a time. Introducing: the Overcoming Mayophobia Kit.
"There are two types of people in this world — people who love Kraft Mayo, and people who don't know they love Kraft Mayo," said Danielle Coopersmith, brand manager for Sandwich Enhancers, Kraft Heinz. "Spreading our smooth and velvety mayo on a piece of bread shouldn't elicit any reaction other than taste bud envy, so we want to encourage these mayo-haters to confront their fears and get to know mayo with our Overcoming Mayophobia Kit."
