For example, most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellman's mayonnaise was manufactured in England. 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 New York City.
The Mexican people were eagerly awaiting delivery and were disconsolate at the loss. So much so that they declared a national day of mourning which they still observe today. It is known, of course, as Sinko de Mayo.

Which is funny because here in Texas people throw big parties and get drunk and eat a bunch of food and what not. And what annoys me is they think its celebrating Mexican Independence day... its just a day that they won some battle i don't know what one but some battle.
