Mayo or Miracle Whip?

[ButtersHawk]

This is a big topic at work today

One's too bland and the other's too tangy. I mix them half and half.

Miracle Whip is a salad dressing and doesn't belong anywhere near a sandwich. (Or anything else other than a trash can)

 

[ButtersHawk]

I have never tried that

Best off the shelf mayo I have ever had.

Mayo and I will kill anyone that says otherwise.

My entire life, my parents used miracle whip and i HATED anything mayonaise based. Mayo, potato salad, ****ing whatever, BLTs, Deviled Eggs hated them. I would gag every time.

I realized later that my entire life I had thought Miracle Whip and Mayo were the same thing, bc my parents just called Miracle Whip mayo.

I feel like I've missed out so much on life and Miracle Whip is not allowed in my house. Not now, not ever.

I know it's like admitting you like twinkies, but I'm going to have to go with the Miracle Whip... Kill me.

Miracle whip? That stuff 80’s moms slathered on turkeys to make them crispy on the outside? I’m good

I could have practically told this story. Looks like we have some shared childhood trauma.

I prefer Mayo mostly but I like Miracle Whip with egg salad (for some reason not deviled eggs) and I think the tanginess of MW balances the salty, and earthy ingredients of a BLT.

I'm the opposite. We didn't have ranch dressing or mayo in the house or on/in anything growing up. I assumed both were disgusting and wouldn't eat it. Finally tried both in my 30s and feel like I basically wasted 15 years of life.

I'm not a mayo purist by any means, but I'd basically rate it Hellmann's > Dukes >>>> Store brand.

Dukes is fine, I don't hate it, but I prefer Hellmann's

I’ve always wondered how Miracle Whip managed to get such a large market share. I suspect the majority of us grew up in homes with Miracle Whip rather than Mayo.

I used to love ranch but now i hate it. it takes over the flavor of everything.

Those commercials in the 90’s made it seem cool, but I still hated it.

I agree. I ordered Dukes a few years back because people down south talk about it like it's some life changing experience. I found Hellmans to be better as well.

Little known fact, either mayo or miracle whip can be used for fist farts too.

Used to love miracle whip as a kid and would only have mayo in certain dishes.
Now I can’t stand miracle whip and will only use mayo.

I didn't know it wasn't okay to like twinkies! Admittedly I only have a twinkie like once every 5 years or so, but they're pretty tasty when I do.

While true, if I saw someone put it on a salad I’d call the police.

They're both disgusting swill of the devil.

Little known fact is that was just molds of Dan Schneider's butthole

I agree, I tried Dukes after it as all the rage on HORT a few years ago. It's okay. Hellmann's is still the gold standard. One could buy cheaper stuff but why?

Speaking of Miracle whip. . . has anyone actually tried using it for it's stated purpose "Salad Dressing"???

Because that sounds nauseating.

Never. I don't even hate it like some and I'll still never try it.

I remember my parents had Miracle whip when I was a kid and reading it say "salad dressing" but we used it as mayo. I just thought it was really odd and I've never heard of anyone using it for salad.
