Mayonnaise availability in PDC?

Hi all, heading down this fall - Q: What is the availability of mayo in Playa? I like to use it to suntan(natural sunscreen and moisturizers in it), and the airlines won't let me have any in my luggage. I was wondering if it is available, and if so what brands (Hellmans hopefully!) - If not, I will just use whatever lotions they sell --Thanks!

just when we've thought we've heard it all...... the mayo thread.
I bet you can actually find Hellmans at the Super Chomak in Akumal

True Confessions Time

I guess I'm almost afraid to admit this..... we brought our own salad dressings - three different kinds, and our sitter brought a bottle of heinz ketchup. As long as it's in a sealed container, it SHOULD be ok - though I would recommend putting the whole thing in a zip lock bag.

Now I'll stand back and take the ribbings.............................

Cucumber Ranch (for my daughter), Parmesan Peppercorn Ranch (for me), Raspberry Balsamic Vinaigrette (for variety). Thought I love honey mustard, I thought 4 bottles would be a bit excessive :p The sad part? About half the time, we forgot to bring our dressings with us to dinner. Total American Waste. Next year? One bottle.
