Big Brother fans called for housemate Jordan to be evicted after revealing his “disgusting” habit during Tuesday night’s episode.
The barrister, 25, was seen entering the ITV show’s famous home on Sunday night as the program returned to British television after a five-year hiatus.
And after just three days in the house, Jordan sparked controversy after slathering a generous helping of mayo on his curry-flavoured noodles.
He explained: ‘I love mayonnaise, I put it on everything.’
Fans rushed to social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their disgust online.
Mayogate: Big Brother fans called for housemate Jordan to be evicted after discovering his ‘disgusting’ habit during Tuesday night’s episode
One viewer wrote: ‘That mayo and noodles are grounds for eviction’
Another said: “I was a bit taken with Jordan but he just put mayo in his noodles. absolute criminal’
A third added: ‘Putting mayo in noodles?! My boyfriend should be evicted just for that’
One wrote: ‘Mayo in noodles? DISGUSTING’
Noodles seemed to be a hot topic during Tuesday’s episode after Henry and Jordan secretly smuggled a pair of bomb noodles into their shared bedrooms.
Farida was quick to share her disappointment with their actions, as she complained to Matty, “You know what? Before I left I said, ‘I’m really hungry and I’m really looking forward to noodles.’
“But as I came down they (Henry and Jordan) saw the pantry, they went and got themselves some noodles, so when I came in there were none left.”
“It doesn’t matter, s**t happens, but it happened three times. It’s part of life here, but it was a bit mean.
As the couple enjoyed their noodles, Farida continued, “But fortunately, God has given us a lot of patience to be patient in certain situations.”
After tossing a generous dollop of mayo into his curry-flavored noodles, Jordan explained, “I love mayo, I put it on everything.”

Big Brother returned to British television with a bartender, make-up artist, butcher and youth worker among the contestants entering the famous house on Sunday.
The influential social experiment, which sees housemates living together in a custom-built house for weeks without access to the outside world in a bid to win £100,000, has opened its doors for the first time in five years.
After being axed by Channel 5 due to falling ratings in 2018, new hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best introduced the group of 16 contestants in a brand new house to a live studio audience.
Big Brother began in 2000 on Channel 4 before Channel 5 took over in 2011, broadcasting in the UK for a total of 18 years.
Before moving in, Jordan said he was most looking forward to “not having to pay bills” while staying at the home.
The “sarcastic” barrister from Scunthorpe said he signed up for the show on a whim and was interested in the social experiment side of the programme.
He said: ‘I have a face like a rotten bum so I wear such wonderful shirts to make up for it.’

Farida was quick to share her disappointment with their actions, as she complained to Matty, “You know what? Before I left I said, ‘I’m really hungry and I’m really looking forward to noodles.’
On why he signed up, Jordan said: “Well, I love the show. I was pretty disillusioned with life, so I guess boredom somewhat drove me to sign up. I honestly signed up on a whim.
“I’m interested in Big Brother’s social experiments.” I don’t like the idea of living with people, but I thought I might as well give it a try. And I wanted to challenge myself.’
On why he’s most likely to be nominated, he explained: “Because I’m nervous and act like I don’t want to be there, even if I want to in my heart.
“Maybe they are nominating me because maybe I’m inactive or I don’t pay equal attention to everyone.” They may feel left out, but I can’t help it.’
Big Brother continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.

WHAT MADE YOU APPLY TO BE A BIG BROTHER HOUSEWIFE? ‘I like the program. To me, it’s the ultimate reality TV show ever. I have multiple sclerosis and the reason I never applied before is because I always saw those great big stairs to get into the house. It was a bit unachievable because I was in a wheelchair for the first three years of my illness. When I saw that he was coming back and looking for the right people from all walks of life, I thought, this is my year.’
