Spicy TRUFF Mayo
“It’s no secret that we love TRUFF’s stylish and tasty black truffle-infused hot sauces, but I was thrilled to learn they’ve expanded their sauce game. I picked up a bottle of the Spicy TRUFF Mayo and it’s by far my most used condiment. BLTs, burgers, breakfast sandos, I’m basically using this on everything.” Buy: $25/2-pack
