Everything was going fine with your Food Opinions post UNTIL you referred to aioli and mayonnaise as possibly the same. Tsk, tsk....
As a Francophile who enjoys BOTH French concoctions, I can assure you that although aioli and mayonnaise are both creamy emulsions, aioli is made from garlic and olive oil while mayonnaise is made from egg yolks and canola oil. The final result may look similar but the two sauces have distinctly different flavors!! And, incidentally, aioli is quite tasty on pommes frites!!
I could also iterate the many health benefits of avocado, but I'll save that for another day. :-)
You had me at “Tony’s Frozen Pizza”. Drives my wife nuts.
I think my wife has come around on them, which is a major win!
