Ftr, I don’t care for aioli, just like I don’t care for mayo, cept using the sriracha and chipotle versions on my mahi/shrimp tacos. I tried them on a couple different flavored chicken sammiches and it just did nothing for me. Also, they were still called mayo ftr.

And finally, ftr, I’m not uppity enough to care about such specific titles. I like shrimp scampi (which I rarely put in pasta), even chicken scampi. So call it whatever the fork you want, and I’ll still eat it.

I'm not trying to correct anyone, just talking. The Capelli d'angelo with shrimp and aioli on my menu was called Scampi, but it was technically just shrimp in garlic and oil over angel hair. And no, it didn't contain mayonnaise. Aioli can be olive oil and garlic too. But according to the Sicilians its garlic mayo... Mayo is oil, eggs and lemon juice anyway.
 
Anybody else do refried beans with breakfast? When my mom makes gravy and biscuits and everything, she always does refried beans. I jyst saw a can and it made me think about it.
 
They weren't prepared correctly then. Again, you don't need condiments on anything if food is prepared correctly.

In Catalonia, "aioli" refers to garlic and olive oil. In Provence, the same. Some other regions include egg, thus the resemblance to mayonnaise.
