What's the LD50 of Mayonnaise?

There is no lethal dose of mayonaise. There are only different levels of euphoria.

Oh dear, how much did you eat?

 

[JaredJames]

There is no lethal dose of mayonaise.

I'm a living testament to that!

No, you can't say that - not enough data yet. It takes 40-to-50 years of repeated doses to take its final effect.

What about in extreme concentrations?

And what about in the case of Cain's Real Natural Mayonnaise? That stuff is killer! I haven't tested its limits, but I suspect that it can be a problem in high doses.

What is LD50 exactly?

Mean lethal dose. The dose that will kill 50% of the lucky folks who sign up for the drug trial. Usually it's college students who sign up for these trials, because they need the money...

In a poor tribute to the film Broken Arrow: Does it really occur that often it has an official name?

Despite the above, I'm interested. Tell me more...

This is something I needed to know a long time ago! I could be in danger of mayonnaise poisoning!

Oh wait...i use miracle whip...nevermind.

Die, Heathen!

Have at thee! *swings a miracle whip jar on a stick*

Miracle whip? Sounds like it comes compressed in a can?

If so, I agree with turbo's above comment!

Nope, comes in a standard glass jar.

Hmm, comment retracted - well, assuming it's actually mayo...

Not mayo. It is a perverse product that cannot be replicated in most environments.

Rats. Too late.

It would appear that the OP is a (um, was a) college student.

While I do urgently need the information, I can inform you that this is for a project of mine. I have not nor will not consume that much mayonnaise.

You're more likely to drown in mayo than receive a lethal dose.

Wild stab in the dark... LD50 of mayo?

A shiver ran down my spine when I read this, something didn't sit right.

Are you trying to subtly kill someone with mayo?

 

[Perfection]

Pretty sure the quantities involved are greater than subtle.

 

[Drakkith]

I would say you would need a HUGE quantity of mayo to kill someone. It would help if you told us exactly what this was for so we can get the context of your project and help you as best we can. =)
