Miracle Whip or Mayo? What is your preference?

[debm55]

I like the sweet tang of Miracle Whip added to my sandwich. I tried Hellmann's once and to me it was bland. But that's just me. So which one do you prefer?

[Ocelot II]

1. Mayo, absolutely. Miracle Whip is vile.

It's the semen of Satan.

[tblue37]

2. Mayo. I hate Miracle Whip.

[mobeau69]

3. This belongs in GD.

[debm55]

9. I know, I know, I made a mistake. I am so sorry. I deleted it. I didn't know how to move it.

[mobeau69]

12. I was just kidding you.

[debm55]

18. I know but it is so embarrassing-me putting the post there instead of here. I hope it drops like a

rock. Is there a way to move a thread. Shit, I am glad I wasn't reading Breaking News when I decided to post. I can see it now------Which do prefer-Miracle Whip or Mayo.

[mobeau69]

21. Don't let the forum police get you. I get the context police after me all of the time.

Best way to not get embarrassed is to not give a fuck.

[debm55]

28. I just posted over their what is Duck's Mayo. Had to fix that one. Keep going from General

Discussion to the Lounge and got the name confused.

[debm55]

29. Thank you, and after that monster of a thread the other day--I spell it Ducks.

[Tetrachloride]

4. The mayonnaise wiki page has history

Inexplicably, left out of The Da Vinci Code.

[wcmagumba]

5. I love MW...find Mayo boring....I come from a long line of AR trailer trash....

and proud of my heritage y'all...

[sinkingfeeling]

6. Duke's mayo.

[PXR-5]

7. Dukes mayo or nothing!

[Goodheart]

13. +1

[Squeaky41]

8. Dressings

Dukes mayo here.Less sweet and more tang..

[debm55]

14. I never heard of Duke's mayo. Is it regional. Here in Pittsburgh, we have Miracle Whip or Hellmann's

[unc70]

10. Dukes Mayo!!

MW is sickeningly sweet slime.

Other brands of mayo are generally sweeter than Dukes and lack the slight bit of tang.

[halfulglas]

11. Dukes. Miracle Whip tastes diluted next to Dukes, which has the tang that Hellman's doesn't.

I didn't know Dukes existed until my daughter-in-law introduced me to it. Now I won't use anything else.

[Goodheart]

15. Yeah.... I thought Blue Plate was great until I tried Hellmans, then

I thought Hellman's was great until I tried Duke's.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

16. Mayo, and I like Kraft's best.

My hubby prefers MW to mayo, so we always have both in the fridge.

[NBachers]

17. Mayo. I got some "healthy organic" mayo at the health food store & wrecked my potato salad. Only

mayo from now on.

Raised in the Eastern US on Hellmann's; I've had to buy Best Foods in California. Even though they're both the same thing, I'd still reach for Hellmann's if it was on the shelf. I was delighted when i was in London a few months ago and could get Hellmann's.

[hlthe2b]

19. Depends on the use. Sandwiches--mayo. Waldorf salad, the sweetness of Miracle Whip

[ProudMNDemocrat]

20. Mayo

[Hortensis]

22. :) Mayo. We both lean strongly to savory foods, except for...sweets.

[Meadowoak]

23. Kraft mayo or nothing.

[trof]

24. Miracle Whip for tuna salad and deviled eggs

Mayo for club sandwiches, burgers, ham & Swiss.
Oh, and fries.

[vsrazdem]

25. I use both. I mostly use Mayo, but I will not eat deviled eggs or egg salad

unless I have Miracle whip. It is just tangier and tastes much better.

[debm55]

33. I agree. I will add BLT sandwiches to the list.

[beaglelover]

26. Mayo. Hellmans of Best Foods only.

[Generic Brad]

27. Clearly no one here has tried Kewpie

I prefer that to all mayos.

[debm55]

30. Generic, what is Kewpie and where do you buy it?

[Hugh_Lebowski]

43. They have it on Amazon but it's basically Japanese mayo ... it's pretty bomb on the right things

[debm55]

51. Does it have Wasabi in it? It so. I think I have eaten it.

[betsuni]

57. Kewpie mixed with wasabi is fantastic!

[Nac Mac Feegle]

44. Kewpie is much better

It uses the yolks as well as the whites of the eggs. Giving it a much better flavor. Almost as good as making it from scratch.

[debm55]

52. Thank you. I will look it up on Amazon.

[yellowdogintexas]

31. Team Mayo. I hate Miracle Whip

Preferred brand is Hellman's; however I have never tried the legendary Duke's.

A Southern Thing did a blind panel tasting of salad dressings: four different brands of mayo and Miracle Whip.

It was hilarious watching the panel try to identify the different brands and figuring out the one they liked best. Each person tasted every brand.

If you have not discovered A Southern Thing, it's on You Tube and it is so funny! It's all about Southern phrases, idiosyncracies, food, and some hilarious skits, with a few parodies thrown in.

[debm55]

34. Yellowdogintexas, what was the result? I' ll have to look it up. So Duke's is regional.

[yellowdogintexas]

71. If I recall correctly, none of them got them right

as far as identifying, and some of them thought it was their favorite when it really wasn't

This one was good but my favorite one is the hot sauce tasting

[debm55]

72. So in reality, there is no difference between Dukes and Miracle Whip. Very interesting. Thank you.

[yellowdogintexas]

81. not so much that, but that what they thought

was one brand was actually another
and of course then they had to rank them

It's the ranking that is hilarious

[CentralMass]

32. Mayo for me. Preferably Hellman's or Best Foods as it's labelled on the west coast.

[GP6971]

35. Mayo

Best Foods / Hellmann's

[applegrove]

36. Hellmann's Mayo. Any kind. Never Miracle Whip. Yuck.

[debm55]

39. Applegrove, Team Mayo. Wish I could post a poll, It said I didn't have enough posts. Oh well.

[ironflange]

37. Miracle Whip here, but I use both

It depends on what I'm making, eg. I would never use MW in a Waldorf salad. But sammies, burgers, etc it's MW all the way.

[debm55]

38. Irpnflange, so you're Team Miracle Whip. I was thinking I must have had it more than once as you

can't ask for Miracle Whip at restaurants. In that case, I use ketchup on my burgers and the bland mayo on my BLT.

[Nanuke]

40. My mother once tried new SpinBlend instead of Miracle Whip in the 60s.

She disliked it so much she warned the neighborhood ladies about it. Grew up on Miracle Whip. Tried Regular mayo in college. Never going back. Hellmans all the way.

[milestogo]

41. No.

It all comes from witches squeezing their pimples.

[debm55]

42. What does? Miracle Whip or Mayo? Or both?

Don't understand your post.

[milestogo]

45. When I was in elementary school we used to tell each other that Mayo

came from witches squeezing their pimples.

I don't know where this came from, but we all said it if somebody was eating a sandwich with Mayo on it.

[debm55]

46. That is gross.

Did the kid eat his sandwich after?

[milestogo]

47. They may have, but I've never been able to eat Mayo.

And that is where my aversion started.

[debm55]

48. Have you tried Miracle Whip?

[milestogo]

49. No.

[debm55]

50. milestogo, what do put on your BLT or mix with egg or tuna salad? Just wondering--not to be snarky.

[milestogo]

53. I'm a vegetarian so I don't eat bacon or tuna.

I really don't even eat sandwiches any more.

[debm55]

54. Thank you for answering my question.

[pansypoo53219]

55. whip, but germans like vinegar.

[debm55]

56. Thank you. I enjoy eating German potato salad. So tasty and with a real zing to it and the bacon.

[IcyPeas]

58. No eggs. Vegan mayo...

59. Best Foods Mayo ( "Known as Hellman's East of the Rockies" )Tiny bit of lemon tang goes with so much

A couple of times in my life I’ve gone off-brand when nothing else was on the shelf, and the worst of all was labeled organic. What the hell did they do to it? It’s a simple recipe, mayo is.

It tastes really good in a tuna sandwich or on a sandwich of cold sliced turkey breast with lettuce and a sprinkle of pepper.

As for Miracle Whip, my high school boyfriend and his family would use nothing else on their sandwiches, but it never tasted “right” to me.

[Emile]

60. 0 carbs mayonnaise

[murielm99]

61. Mayo!

Can't stand Miracle Whip.

[AntivaxHunters]

62. Miracle Whip is gross

[bucolic_frolic]

63. High Fructose Corn Syrup

Read the label. Not a wise choice.

[Prairie_Seagull]

64. Present company excepted (of course).

If you like MW you must be a russky. Not the good ones. The bad ones. Only bad russkys eat MW. Of course i am just joking, by the way how they hell do you spell russky?

Team Mayo all they way.

[debm55]

66. russkie i believe is the correct spelling.

Ty for the spell check.

69. Not Russian, but roots in the country of Georgia.

[debm55]

84. Not Russian at all, I didn't mean to correct you, I thought you asked how to spell it, sorry.

[Prairie_Seagull]

85. I,m cool, you,re cool. It's all good.

Have a good NYE. Bunch of armature drinkers out tonight, Be safe.

[frogmarch]

65. Mayo!

My mom always used Miracle Whip, which I think might be why I hated potato salad as a kid.

Years ago one of my daughters-in-law clued me in to Mayo, and now I'm the Potato Salad Queen at block parties. Anyway, I once saw one of the neighborhood men scraping the bowl and licking the spoon.

[Elessar Zappa]

67. I like both.

Miracle whip for bologna and ham sandwiches and mayo for turkey, chicken and roast beef sandwiches.

[electric_blue68]

70. Mayo only! Hellman's. No to MW. I had it by accident once - oh, WHAT'S this?!? 😄

[debm55]

73. electric, I think at one point MW was sued by Hellman's as MW is not mayo but was passing itself of

as mayo when MW was in fact not. MW now has a disclaimer on the front label saying it is a dressing.We used to eat it mixed with lettuce as a kid, but also on sammies and in potato salad and cole slaw.

[electric_blue68]

74. 🤔 I could see it potato salad. 👍 Interesting, I think I got the impression at some point that...

it was a mayonnaise competitor.


Later in my late teens, early 20's as my taste buds became non-picky I learned to love things like onion chutney, mango chutney along w Indian food, more kinds of Chinese food and other cuisines.🍽️ 😄👍
.

Trying to figure what take out I can have for New Year's aah just thought of an option w a credit card. Some places I'd go to only take cash which I'm short on.

[debm55]

77. It was but that's why Hellmans took them to court as it was not Mayo. So next time you go to the

store, check out the label and placement of MW. It should be with the salad dressings but it's not. The color and years as passing itself off as a different product, lead people to believe it was mayo. just checked and my jar says dressing. Still like it though. we are doing Chinese tomorrow night. There is a small family restaurant with the best egg rolls and sweet and sour soup. Happy New Year.

[electric_blue68]

80. Yeah, it's still next to Hellmen's here. Enjoy your NYEve dinner. 👍

[debm55]

87. electric, thank you and have a great New Year.

[Mr. Scorpio]

75. Mayo

Definitely mayo.

[sir pball]

76. Blue Plate.

"If you don't like Blue Plate…FUCK YOU!"

Miracle Whip tastes like ass.

[debm55]

92. Hey, that's gross. Ludwig, have a Happy New Year.

[patricia92243]

86. Mayo

[Swede]

88. Miracle Whip all the way.

Egg salad sandwiches are the bomb with MW.

[debm55]

89. You are so right, Team Mayo! Happy New Years

[Wicked Blue]

90. Hellman's!

There IS no other mayonnaise in my reckoning.

[TexasBushwhacker]

91. I like them both for different things

For sandwiches, potato salad or deviled eggs, it's mayo (and mustard).

For tuna or chicken salad it can be either.

For carrot and raisin or broccoli salad, I prefer Miracle Whip.
