tuna mayo

Sandwich filling classic

Tuna mayo is canned tuna mixed with mayonnaise, a simple preparation used as a sandwich filling or salad.

The combination is so standard that the shortened form functions as a single menu item: I'll have the tuna mayo on rye.

Common in British English, where mayo is the standard abbreviation for mayonnaise.
