I hate it.
You can love mayo, you can hate Mayo. Both are totally acceptable.
If you consider miracle whip to be good however…that is a crime that must be punished.
I thought I hated mayonnaise. Turns out I didn’t know Miracle Whip wasn’t mayonnaise. I hate Miracle Whip.
20 percent of us find it disgusting. https://www.popsci.com/mayonnaise-disgust/
Mayo for hot sandwiches, miracle whip for cold deli, that’s my strat
Absolutely not.
They’re not the same thing? As a hater of mayo, I’ve always thought they were
*Mayonnaise is made of oil, eggs, and vinegar (or lemon juice).
*Miracle Whip is made from water, soybean oil, high-fructose corn syrup, vinegar, modified corn starch, eggs, salt, natural flavor, mustard flour, potassium sorbate, spice, and dried garlic.
Changed the ingredients because the source said sugar and not corn syrup. Miracle whip is basically a science experiment to make super cheap mayo. It’s like comparing cheddar cheese to American cheeze. One just isnt right.
It’s sounds like Miracle Whip is the better of the two…
Miracle Whip is like a sweeter mayo. Unless you were born and raised with it, then you’ll likely hate it.
Mayonnaise can be made simply by emulsifying oil into egg yolks. It’s super easy to make if you want, and it’s easy to modify by adding spices or seasonings. You don’t eat it by itself, but it’s fantastic for use in baking, mashed potatoes, sandwiches, sauces, and dips.
Mayo is primarily an ingredient for use on something else. You would never eat flour by itself, just like you’d never eat straight mayo by itself.
Uh oh…
Don’t tell me…
It ruins my Spicy Chicken Sandwich from Wendy’s whenever I forget to specify “no mayo”.
Yeah, I stopped getting it because even when I remembered to say “no mayo”, they’d still pile it on
Well I mean… it is my people’s beverage of choice
CHUG!

I think it’s not an instrument.
Glad to see. I’m not the only one.
You take nasty ass uncooked eggs, Mix them up with some oil and a splash of vinegar, lemon juice and mustard. How does that not sound appetizing?
- Some dick head in 18 Dickety 4 or whenever they invented that shit probably
Get the fuck out of my life Mayo, and fuck your cousin aioli trying to sneak into my sandwiches as well.
I see a few responses on here about “miracle whip”. For those ignoramuses amongst us, what is this thing?
It’s a brand name for a “whipped dressing” product. It’s similar in color and texture to mayonnaise, but it has a different flavor. It’s usually vegetarian ingredients, as opposed to mayo which uses egg
When I was growing up, my mother thought it was healthier, so we never had mayo. So I was used to the flavor of Miracle Whip and generally prefer it.
Thanks, it’s a new one on me
It’s “mayonnaise” with “flavor” added to it. And it’s gross as fuck.
It’s so much better than mayo, because a little hit of lemon juice giving it some flavor, some tartness, instead of the congealed snot of mayonnaise
I always thought it was like a Mr Whippy, but I’m guessing not from this thread! Maybe it’s like salad cream?
As margirine is to butter…
Essentially Americanized mayo. Cheaply produced and processed in massive quantities with lots of added sugar. Personally I find it disgusting (why would you want something savory so sweet?!) But my American grandfather loves it. If you would like to imagine it’s flavor, imagine mixing vanilla ice cream with normal mayo.
It’s one of those American staples that is a cheaper, more readily available, version of European staples that the American public continues to love and eat out of familiarity. American chocolate is similar, though more popular amongst younger Americans. I’d say miracle whip is less popular because quality mayo is now also readily available and very few prefer the cheap imitation. Quality chocolate is still much harder to find thus American chocolate remains popular.
Interesting, thanks!
Huh. My experience as an American is never having seen “quality” mayo, but switched to only quality chocolate decades ago
I like it on sandwiches, but need only a LITTLE bit. It’s very easy to have too much and then have a slimy sandwich
Normal mayo (like Hellmann’s or Heinz) is fine and all, but goddamn Kewpie mayo is the shit. It’s easily top 3 readymade condiments in our fridge; we’ve always got a bottle on the go!
Wasabi mayo is my jam. Same kind of squeezie bottle in a bag, but green.
Is it actually different? I thought it was just a different brand. It’s not like miracle whip, right?
It’s absolutely different, a much deeper and more umami flavour! We used to just use it for Asian type dishes that called for it but it’s so good that we’ve essentially replaced normal mayo with it at this point
It tastes just like miracle whip to me. I just can’t do it.
I’m a firm believer that Duke’s is the Almighty King of mayonnaise.
nothing like whip, i will never buy another brand of mayo.
they have a citrus flavour too :)
I have been trying to find a reason to get it and try it. You are that reason.
You’re making a great decision! It’s more expensive than regular mayo but jeez is it worth every penny. We have a Korean shop near us which stocks it at lower prices than regular supermarkets, so we go and stock up occasionally
Kewpie is the reason I’m the mayo monster. I love it in my sandwiches, salads, sushi and ramen. It has an incredibly rich, savory, nutty flavour.
On some level I like it but I mostly hate it.
A microscopically thin layer on a few select sandwiches is appropriate and delicious to me.
Anything more than a teaspoon and it becomes overwhelming and cloying.
I really think for the most part, mayonnaise has become a crutch for bad cooks. You really do not need to just add essentially pure fat to make food taste good, that’s not necessary unless you are lazy and cheap.
I find eating excess amounts of fat and oil to be disgusting and nauseating.
Easy to make yourself.
Not only does Mayo make things like sandwiches better but you can combine it with various other flavors for deliciousness. E.g. garlic or spicy aioli.
Sriracha mayo is awesome with burgers, fries, tater tots, etc
Neutral
I love mayo. Maybe you should try hummus.
There’s bad mayonnaise out there, like a lot of bad. I prefer to put it on my fries. It’s very delicious.
Arctic Circle in Utah gave out fry sauce (aka fancy sauce). It’s just mayo and ketchup, but it was so popular all of the local chains started providing it as well (McDonald’s, Wendy’s, 5 guys). The better ones generally splash a bit of BBQ as well.
Where I used to live a favorite was fries with mayonnaise and cheese powder.
Thought I hated it all until fairly recently. Homemade mayo can be OK. Japanese Kewpi mayo is pretty good. Still, I rarely put it on anything by choice.
