Mayo Conspiracy

The Conspiracy Is Now Available on Amazon!

We have exciting news. The Mayo Conspiracy is now available to view on Amazon, providing instant access to the over 80 million Amazon Prime subscribers as well! Reaction from Big Mayo has been swift, sounding very much like condimentalists in a full state of panic and denial. For example, take a look at this quote from I.B. White, the Mayonnaise Lord who's been running the cartel since the 1980's: "Any evidence connecting are product to the Nazi party in the 1930's or the KGB in the 1950's is circumstantial at best." Well, anyone who has seen The Mayo Conspiracy, knows that's a bold faced lie. As a quick example, the Russian Dressing scandal we detail in our film, connects the cartel directly to the old Soviet Union at the height of the cold war, undoubtedly making mayonnaise the most unpatriotic condiment in American history.


With over 100 million sandwiches eaten a day in the U.S. alone, Big Mayo is willing to kill over being the spread applied to that bread. I mean kill, literally, as regimes have been overthrown for standing in their way. Condimental dissidents have been mayo-boarded for standing in their way.

Hello 2017

Just about everyone agrees that 2016 was a brutal year for taking away our entertainment icons. Hit particularly hard was the music industry as we had to say goodbye to David Bowie, Glenn Frey, Maurice White, (founder of Earth Wind & Fire) Keith Emerson, Prince (as well as his protege Vanity) and most recently, George Michael. Many of these names were just way too young to leave us. Then, shifting over to actors, we need to add Gary Shandling, George Kennedy, Alan Rickman (aka Hans Gruber) Abe Vigoda, Mrs. Brady and of course Princess Carrie Fisher to this very upsetting list. And last but most certainly not least, sports and cultural hero, Muhammad Ali. Many of these people we grew up with so losing them feels like losing pieces of our childhood. This year, we also were hit with one of the darkest, and most stressful Presidential election campaigns ever, regardless of where you fall on the political spectrum. It's really safe to say that 2016 left a sour taste in all our collective mouths. (much like biting into a sandwich, unexpectedly smothered in mayo) But nobody out there was able to sum up the year better than Larry David, who with poise, grace , and just merely 5 words, pretty much nailed it on the John Oliver show: [evp_embed_video url="https://www.holdthatmayo.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/LarryDavid.mp4" poster="https://www.holdthatmayo.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/LARRY-STILL.bmp"]  

On a more positive note, the last few months of 2016 gave way to more cracks in the armor of Big Mayo! (and these were big ones.) The Mayo Conspiracy received two great reviews, shining more light on the unspeakable crimes committed by the mayonnaise industry since they infiltrated America's food supply back in the 1930's. One is from the entertainment site, The Knockturnal and the second came from OneFilmFan. And adding to our two previous comedy wins in the festival circuit, The Mayo Conspiracy took home the Best Director award at

Muskoka
The Mayo Conspiracy will be making its Canadian debut at the Muskoka Independent Film Festival on August 29th. Showtime is 9:45 pm. The festival is located in the quaint resort village of Rosseau at the top of Muskoka, where it's not uncommon for movie stars, hockey players or captains of industry to pass by you on the street unnoticed. Looking forward to getting our film in front of an Ontario audience and exposing the evil inner workings of the Mayonnaise Cartel to our northern neighbor.
