Dan Mullen and Matt Barrie kept eating mayonnaise during the Duke’s Mayo Bowl, and it was so gross

To the surprise of absolutely no one, Wednesday’s Duke’s Mayo Bowl game featured a lot of mayonnaise. Honestly, we’d be disappointed if that wasn’t the case, but it’s still pretty gross.

As North Carolina and West Virginia faced off in one of the most popular bowl games, ESPN broadcasters Matt Barrie and Dan Mullen were having their own version of the Duke’s Mayo Bowl in the booth. Specifically, they were taste-testing different items with mayonnaise, like habanero garlic flavor mayo.

They both actually seemed to enjoy the habanero-garlic edition — though Barrie acknowledged that maybe downing a little spice before calling a play was the wrong move for him.

But they kept going with their taste-testing, despite the profound grossness of consuming so much mayo.

But eventually, Barrie and Mullen brought out mayo nachos, which is quite an escalation from the previous options. It looked kind of like elote but with chips and skewed proportions.

It’s not totally clear if it was nacho-flavored mayo on nachos, just nachos with mayo on top of them or both. But either way, it was too much for Barrie to handle – and understandably.

“Oh my god… no,” Barrie said when Mullen offered him a taste. But Mullen loved them.

So yeah, there was a lot of mayonnaise at the Duke’s Mayo Bowl, and it was so gross.

UPDATE: More mayo.

College football fans thought so too, but some also loved it:
