Okay, for all the Dukes people out there-and I know you're offended that anyone else would dare make mayonnaise-bear with me here.  You're probably gonna get a laugh out of this.  There are bizarre promotions, and then there's this.  Kraft Mayonnaise is looking for their next brand ambassador...their next, "Mayo Man."  According to the legend perpetuated by this video, the original "Mayo Man" made his bones by weirding people out during a 2019 minor league baseball game by eating from a huge bucket of mayo with a spoon.

So if you think you have what it takes, Kraft is looking for you!  Now it does come with perks.  By becoming the new "Mayo Man," you'll receive an official “Mayodorsement” contract and a $10,000 signing bonus.  Plus, and this is the biggie, a jar of mayo with their face on it, a full-page ad and a digital billboard in your hometown.
