There have been some pretty weird food combinations in recent years, but I think this one takes the cake.
Mixed food flavors have been a hot commodity recently around the world. Spaghetti tacos, green tea Kit-Kats, chocolate covered bacon, the list goes on and on. But at what point should we stop and think, maybe that shouldn’t be a new food item?
Enter Heinz Creme Egg flavored mayonnaise. I just have to ask, why? Why was this one not shelved? Maybe this should have been one of those flavors that got the “maybe we shouldn’t make this one” label. Apparently this was an April Fool’s joke last year, but this year they decided to actually make it. This weird concoction is ‘rich and creamy Heinz mayonnaise blended with Cadbury Creme Egg filling and milk chocolate pieces.’ The blend is supposed to be a good mix for waffles and crumpets. Um yeah, no thanks. I’ll stick to maple syrup and whipped cream on my waffles.
Heinz [Seriously] Good Mayonnaise brand manager, Martina Davis said:
In Heinz’s 150th anniversary year, we want to take every opportunity to celebrate and Easter has always been one of our favourite times of the year. So we set out to create the most Easter-y mayo we could. And who better to partner with than Cadbury Creme Egg — the kings and queens of Easter and another of the nation’s most loved brands!

Raphael Capitani, brand manager for Cadbury Creme Egg had this to say:
We’re excited to finally announce our partnership with Heinz to create this gloriously gooey, crazy combination and dream collaboration for so many Cadbury Creme Egg lovers. We couldn’t think of a better partner to make this spread. The surprising taste is so, so delicious!

It sounds like they really put a lot of thought and dedication into this decision and they are really excited about it. So here’s the catch, if you’re interested in trying this interesting (to say the least) item: the mayonnaise will only be availavle at a special pop-up inside London’s Truman Brewery from April 11th-13th. Fortunately I am much too far for this chaos, but if you make it down there to try it let me know! I must admit, I am a bit curious…
