What Is a Mayonnaise Slice?

It’s exactly what it sounds like. It’s true: Japan’s Bourbon Company is making mayo by the slice. Each mayonnaise slice looks exactly like an individually-wrapped piece of American cheese. However, the slices aren’t necessarily meant to be placed on a sandwich and chowed down on right away.

The manufacturer instructs consumers to put the slice of mayo on bread and then warm it, so eating this stuff cold might not be your best option.

Where Can I Buy Them?

Bourbon Company is making two flavors of this oddity: tuna and a spicy fish flavor. Both come with four slices per package and cost ¥200 (about $1.80). They’re not currently available in the United States, but they’ll be released in Japan on March 2.

If you’re looking for some interesting snacks while you wait for them to arrive in the States, we suggest these unusual regional foods you can find around the US. You should also check your grocery store for ketchup slices!
