The "Mexican" Holiday celebrated my Skydivers in Canada, Air Guitar gods in The Cayman Islands and Cerveza drinkers in Malta, and the USA...

But except for the state of Puebla.. It isn't celebrated in Mexico.;~D

Since it is a beer holiday, they cant afford to. But the ones here in the states can.

Cinco de Mayo is terribly obscure around here.

Hellmann's Mayonnaise



Most people don't know that in 1912 Hellmann's Mayonnaise was manufactured in
England . In fact, the Titanic was carrying 120,000 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 its stop in New York . This would have been
the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico . But as
we know, the great ship did not make it

to New York . The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever
lost.

The people of Mexico , who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly
awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so
great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still
observe to this day.

The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of
course, as Sinko de Mayo.
