That's probably a function of the serving size being one tablespoon, which wouldn't contain enough protein to register. Mayonnaise is mostly a combination of eggs and oil, in a ratio of roughly 1 egg per cup of oil. One large egg has about 6 g protein.
You'd need to eat an awful lot to live on it.

Charming. I've received recording equipment packed like that, and I've been lucky that so far nothing has arrived broken.

All of June's interactions with people involved in Gypsy must have been pretty weird.
The only weirder case I can think of is the situation with Michael Weatherly, who played Robert Wagner in a TV movie about Natalie Wood's death...only to have Wagner then play his father on NCIS.

My Android phone just updated too, with a new layout. At least the icons are recognizable. I don't deal well with icons, and I remember a Windows update that took weeks too get used to because nothing looked the same.

I know you're kidding, but that could be effective: Man A sings the Mame song to Woman A; Woman B sings the Passion song to Man B. The second song would serve as a rebuke to the first.
If I did it, it would be far from the strangest arrangement I'd ever been asked to write.

Understandable! You might be amused to know that in some old church records, October got abbreviated as 8ber. November was 9ber, December Xber.

How have I never heard this before?
Skipping around the tracks on YouTube I'm surprised by the keys. No one would dare do "Do-Re-Mi" in E-flat today; even assuming you found a Friedrich with a solid C5, he might not have it tomorrow!

I started looking for Gemze de Lappe before I remembered that she did it in London, with Howard Keel.
Some years ago I was behind the piano for four hours while Gemze taught the Oklahoma! ballet to a group of dancers. It was a remarkable experience.

The German word is "stumm." It means silent or mute.
E.g., the German word for "silent film" is "Stummfilm."

The audience response was bonkers. We had 45-minute autograph lines after some performances. I've never experienced anything else like it.
