My favorite inventor is the person who mixed potatoes with mayonnaise and called it a salad.

@Alice

My question would be how much someone would pay for me to eat one of these, because I certainly wouldn't do it for free.

Hellmann’s Introduces New Meat-On-The-Bottom Mayo Cups

EAGLEWOOD CLIFFS, NJ—Describing it as a convenient all-in-one option for consumers in a hurry, Hellmann’s on Thursday unveiled a new meat-on-the-bottom mayo cup. “With a delicious layer of meat in every cup, you can now enjoy your mayonnaise without having to add your own ground beef or diced ham,” said spokesperson Owen Paquete, adding that the cups, which also come in buffalo chicken and smoked brisket flavors, were ideal for a breakfast on the go or a between-meal snack. “Some people immediately stir the mayonnaise and meat together so they can savor all the flavors at once, while others work their way through the mayo first and then treat themselves to a single decadent spoonful of meat and juices—honestly, there’s no wrong way to enjoy it.” Due to customer demand, Hellmann’s had at press time announced plans to expand the line with Greek meat-on-the-bottom mayonnaise cups featuring gyro shavings and souvlaki.

A while back, Sarah Taber's mentions ended up with a thread of things called "salad".
I still have the scars.

@Alice how about- and stay with me- cabbage, mayo and a little vinegar?

Or, if you’re like me, a bottle of good wine vinegar, and a straw

@Alice cause "salad" originally meant anything chipped and sprinkled with salt long before it meant specifically lettuce, etc.

Salad - Etymology, Origin & Meaning

Late 14c. "late" originates from Old French salade and Medieval Latin salata, meaning "salted vegetables," from Latin sal "salt," reflecting its meaning of season...

@Alice
There's a different type of potato salad that tastes even better which is basically potatoes and vinaigrette dressing, which I prefer personally but even so, it does seem that potatoes + a condiment of some form = salad somehow...

@Alice Oh, that reminds me - I bought a bag of tiny potatoes yesterday. Tossing them in the air fryer and then tossing them with some mayo sounds like an excellent idea. And healthy, because it's "salad."
