Pasteurization is a swell thing, But it only kills the microorganisms
in the mayo before they put in the jar.

It is still a rich organic soup, ripe for colonization.

So unless you live in an operating room and sterilize the knife, each
time you put it in the jar, refrigeration is probably a good idea.
