   It's an old Jewish joke about gentile people eating white bread with   
   mayonnaise. Jews eat brown bread with mustard. I married a non-Jewish guy and   
   my mom came to town to meet them. She called me from the grocery store and   
   said in a hushed, conspiratorial    
   tone, "I'm at the supermarket. Do you want me to get some ham and wonderbread   
   with mayonnaise?" She wasn't kidding. She was trying to show how open-minded   
   she was.
