What in seven hells is this?
In a clip we really have no explanation for, a professional American footballer has admitted that one of his drinking habits involves putting mayo in his coffee. And now we’ve had to pour ours down the sink.
NCAA quarterback Will Levis, who plays for the University of Kentucky football team – also known as the Wildcats – recently demonstrated his bizarre dietary habit.
We know Americans often take tea and coffee much different than we Brits, with creamer often and half and half etc, but we’re fairly confident when we say putting a condiment you’d find on a burger or put chips from a takeaway, in a hot beverage is pretty left-field.
Have you ever had Mayonnaise with your morning coffee?@UKFootball QB @will_levis is known to dabble w/ said combo 😳 pic.twitter.com/ZuR92Toa4m

Demonstrating the concoction for CBS Sports, the athlete can be seen adding what we can only describe as a rather excessive few dollops of mayo into his otherwise unsullied black coffee.
Not only can you hear the typically savoury, egg-based sauce, plopping into the cup but you can also hear the horror and disbelief of those around him as they watch the 23-year-old take a big gulp.
Fans and unsuspecting commenters underneath the video reacted as you expect:

Oh my god.

However, a couple of people tried to justify his stance:
Not only is mayonnaise my fave condiment, but it can also be used as a substitute for butter. Butter in coffee is a thing, so I’m down with this!

People have often put butter or coconut oil in coffee.
Mayo is mostly oil, and will emulsify better than butter or oil
Chemically, it's very close to non-dairy creamer.
As long as you mix it well and avoid chunks, I can see it working.

Regardless of various other coffee trends around the globe, most people were of the opinion that there is no amount of stirring that can rescue a cup of coffee filled with mayo.
Kentucky, have a word with your boy.
