“What did the garlic dip say to the French fries?”/“Aioli have eyes for you.”

“Aioli have eyes for you #kitchensongs” was posted on Twitter by Sue on May 24, 2010. The joke is a pun on the famous song “I Only Have Eyes for You” (1934), by composer Harry Warren and lyricist Al Dubin.

Wikipedia: Aioli
Aioli, allioli or aïoli (/aɪˈoʊli/ or /eɪˈoʊli/; Provençal Occitan: alhòli [aˈʎɔli] or aiòli [aˈjɔli]; Catalan: allioli [ˌaʎiˈɔli]; Spanish: alioli [ˌaliˈoli]) is a sauce made of garlic, salt, and olive oil and found in the cuisines of the northwest Mediterranean, from Valencia to Calabria.
 
The names mean “garlic and oil” in Catalan/Valencian and Provençal. It is found in the cuisines of the Mediterranean coasts of Spain (the Valencian Community, Catalonia, the Balearic Islands, Murcia and eastern Andalusia), France (Provence) and Italy (Sicily and Calabria).
   
Wikipedia: I Only Have Eyes for You
“I Only Have Eyes for You” is a romantic love song by composer Harry Warren and lyricist Al Dubin, written for the film Dames (1934) when it was introduced by Dick Powell. Several successful recordings of the song were made in 1934 and later there were charted versions by The Flamingos (1959), and by Art Garfunkel (1975).

My wife asked me if I liked garlic mayonnaise & I said “No, aioli have eyes for you” & she literally just stared at me. And she wonders why I spend so much time on Twitter.
