You got to keep it separated

I was going to make a tuna sandwich and there were flakes of tuna in the Miracle Whip.  I dug out and disposed of several tablespoons of whipped, white goodness for fear of contamination.  I understand that it was refrigerated and I was going to mix tuna and Miracle Whip anyway, but still, it made me unhappy. 

I know it's odd, but I can't help it; cross contamination of foods bothers me.  I don't want mini-globs of jelly in my peanut butter.  I don't like toast crumbs on the butter.  Please don't use the mashed potato spoon for the gravy. 

Once it's on your plate, mix and mash and stir and blend.  Until then, keep it apart so I can keep it together.
