Aioli needs to keep its name. Firstly because as a combination of garlic/oil/salt it is vegan, and as such it should remain an easy choice for those who prefer a diet free of animal products – just as tofu is.
Amen brother! I have been fighting for this distinction for years now. I love aoli, and I'm talking heavy-duty aoli… an entire head of garlic. I also like homemade mayo as well, but it is not aoli.
This is just another example of the stupidification of the USA. Idiots who don't know any better fall for the idiots that want to "recoin" a new trend term just to stand out. In the old days people would be slandered for saying or posting inappropriate terminology. Now, in our modern era with the "information highway" ?… forget it. Generally people are too undereducated to even know root word meanings in their native language. Don't even bother if you think they can handle a foreign one !
I don't càre for mayo on sandwiches so I always have to ask when I see aioli in the description…it's always just mayo. I would love to try some authentic aioli.
Good luck with talking down the general public on this one. I think you'll be as successful as reinstating the original meaning of "button down shirt" – which until shopping on the internet specified a man's dress shirt whose collar buttoned down into place. That name has been destroyed and I feel certain will never come back because a majority of humans are simply too "simple" to be bothered with learning the difference. Aioli is now mayo. The dumbing down of humanity continues.
Aioli name come from the catalan word "All i Oli" meaning garlic and oil, because the original sauce is only meant to have these 2 ingredients(no egg or vinager like mayo),. This word is difficult to pronunce for non native speakers, especially the double L sound, many people mispronounciating it as simple 'i', leading to aioli.
keeps up the american trend of weird names (hard cider) for example
been saying this for years
"Mayonnaise" sounds romantic from the mouth of Antonio Banderes
Those of us with egg allergies feel the pain 😭😭
So when people say garlic aioli????????????????

Culture, region etc will always change the meaning of words nobody is trying to hold down the ketchup traditions. aioli is fair game.
THANK YOU!

What about the spread we put on toast…… 'Butthair'?
And then people from the us talk.about garlic aioli and I'm like ???? Aioli always has garlic in it?
It's not man-aise. Mayonnaise. May-o-naise!
This would have been a much better video if you had shown how to make aoli while explain the difference between Mayonnaise and Aoli.
Soooo….. garlic aioli?
I’m a chef and I’ve been saying this for years
Your disambiguation was successful
Yes, thank you! Garlic mayo is NOT alloli!
THANK YOU!
Disambiguation is the word you meant. Discombobulate means confuse.
If you think they are even remotely interchangeable, you’re disgusting
banjour
Definitely not interested!!!
Who thought they were the same? I guess an uneducated person would think they are the same.

Wait, so real aioli has no eggs?
I never even suspected that! Wow, I will look on your site for the recipe for aïoli. It sounds divine!👏🏻

Frustrating to anyone with food intolerances, when people fake it and serve mayonnaise while calling it aioli
