You can actually store mayonaise at room temperature.... :D

 

In the past, it was believed that food mixtures that contained mayonnaise spoiled more rapidly than the same foods without mayonnaise. Commercial mayonnaise actually slows the growth of bacteria. This is because it contains lemon juice and vinegar, both acids that make conditions less favorable for the survival and growth of bacteria. However, adding mayonnaise to sandwich should not be considered a substitute for keeping the sandwich cold.

Ya. Women douche with vinegar for the same reason. So if you're ever out of vinegar, use lemon juice...just sayin'.:freak:
