This is the real deal with Cinco de Mayo.

Most people don’t know that back in 1912, Hellmann’s mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York.

This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost.

The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day.

The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as Sinko de Mayo.

I always think of "holidays" like Cinco de Mayo and St. Patricks day as basically amateur hour holidays.

I know this is supposed to be funny but I have to point out that the Titanic sank in 1912 and Hellman's Mayonnaise was founded by Richard Hellman in 1913 (in New York City).

The crazy thing is, Cinco de Mayo does seem like it could be a Mexican war movie title. Just not a naval battle.

The date is observed to commemorate the Mexican Army's unlikely victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, under the leadership of General Ignacio Zaragoza.[1][2]

 

[cbrunny]

you guys are confused. it's cinco de cuatro

 

[Ken g6]

I just realized where the survivors could be taken, from whatever battle this is about:

It's one thing to be a party pooper. It's another thing to be completely wrong party pooper.

Hellmann's was born in 1905 when Richard Hellmann began selling mayonnaise made from his wife's own recipe. Used in salads and sold in their New York delicatessen, the mayonnaise proved so popular that Hellmann began selling it in wooden boats used for weighing butter.

1913 is when Hellmann opened his mayonnaise factory.

If anything, you could have pointed out that New York was the final port of call for the Titanic, not Vera Cruz.
