61. What part if the South? Was always Dukes around here

We always thought Hellmans was runny, even 50 years ago. Thought it was only one step above salad dressing, an insult for most of us.

Anyway, try Dukes and see what you think. It has a slightly different taste that is deliberate. Still has water as third ingredient.
