ESPN star Stephen A. Smith said Wednesday he "cringed" after hearing the mayonnaise habit of Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis.

Smith addressed Levis and his mayonnaise love in the latest episode of "The Stephen A. Smith Show." He titled the separate clip, "Only a white person would put mayonnaise in their coffee."

"Do y'all know he got a lifetime deal with Hellmann's? That's worse than that UFC fighter who had a lifetime contract with Popeye’s Chicken. That’s just nasty," Smith said.

"And, by the way, I’m going to say something that ain’t popular but it needs to be said . . . when I saw this I knew he had to be White. Ain’t no brothers or sisters doing that. Ain’t no brothers or sisters putting mayonnaise in their coffee. That had to be somebody White. It’s all love."

Levis signed the lifetime deal with Hellmann’s on Tuesday. He went viral during the NFL Draft process when he revealed that he put a dab of mayo in his coffee.

Levis dished to Fox News Digital about why he fell in love with the condiment in the first place.

"I think my palette maybe developed a little earlier than most, and so I was definitely dipping all my nuggets and everything in ketchup. But I started putting mayonnaise on my sandwich like when I was pretty young, all my deli sandwiches, like turkey, cheese, mayo," he said.

"I remember going to lunch and having one of those every single day in elementary school. But yeah, I don’t know, probably just my parents who forced me to eat what they wanted
