2. Vegenaise is better than both of them.
Some say it's the best. And they are correct.

Do you have an actual recipe for that?

23. Too true
Hey, I know who The Stig is. The way my kid's been driving with his X-Box racing games, I'm thinking he's moonlighting in a white racing suit. "Some say...he's only FIVE years old...and that he sleeps in Spongebob SquarePants pajamas..."
:rofl:

Hey, like my new sig? I couldn't resist. I share May's sentiment.

32. That's the only one I ever buy.
I've tried the others, but that's still the best for flavor and texture/mouthfeel

12. I agree.
Miracle Whip is too sweet.

I hear it's big in the South, though.

26. Miracle Whip IS too sweet!...I vote for the real.
A word of warning. Hellmann's has a new "olive oil based mayonaisse dressing" and I bought it because once in a blue moon I've made
olive oil mayo from scratch and it's lovely. But Hellman's (Hellmann's?) olive oil thingie is not good. It's too sweet, just like Miracle Whip. I threw it away.

17. Real mayo is gross.
Miracle Whip is the only mayo-like product I like.

Only on a very few things... and only a little...

But real mayo? Yuck... no way.

28. Real mayonnaise?...Hellman's?
That's like saying "I like real spaghetti sauce, I buy Ragu"..lol

Both Miracle whip and Hellman's have their purposes and I use both, but real mayo is made at home.

31. Why do people like maynonnaise? Since I was an infant it made me gag.
Edited on Fri Jan-16-09 07:11 PM by Mike 03
I don't get the appeal?

What is it about Mayo that people like? It's just thick white stuff. Doesn't it come from egg yolks?

34. REAL mayo for me!
Ever tried to make ranch dressing from a packet with Miracle Whip? :puke: Only real mayo works.

Potato salad tastes better when made with real mayo too.

Do you think we could start the Mother of All Lounge Wars about mayo vs. miracle whip? Let's try this:

Laura Branigan was breastfeeding at the Olive Garden while dining on corn flake-breaded fried chicken. She dipped her French fries in mayonnaise. :D

39. My husband insists on BluePlate. One time
my mom was going to make potato salad at my house, and when she got here and realized we didn't have Hellman's, she went to the store and got some. BluePlate wasn't good enough. It is mayonnaise. But yeah, Miracle Whip = :puke:
