Funny, no mention of Miracle Whip yet. Just lighter mayo with sugar. I prefer it, but sometimes ONLY mayo will do.

My wife makes a MADDDDD quiche. It requires mayo. We get Best Foods at the local commissary. It's Hellman's with the Best Foods label. Same stuff.

Re: # 14 . . .

Very well could be . . . Many food manufactures sell products with different lables for different stores.

Take for instance Store Brand cereals and coffees and canned fish, ect . . .

Herfsnipe, I was raised in CT on Miracle Whip, but I thought it was salad dressing. I could use it all day instead of mayo, but I think homemade mayo is best.

I love mayo on burgers.

An ad line from old commercials was;

"Hellmanns's in the east, Best Foods in the west."

I am a Hellman's fan since early childhood. For me, nothing is a substitute.

Except for one thing: aioli. Basically, a fresh made olive oil and garlic take on mayo. Lemon juice, eggs, garlic and olive oil. Anything that calls for mayo is better with aioli but I wouldn't substitute mayo for aioli. That would be tragic.

Aioli is what mayo wishes it was.

I picked up a jar of Hellman's Olive Oil blend........very good.

Much creamier (less gelatinous)........a bit more tart.

It was quite good on my BLT today!
