    Definitely prefer MW: you guys made me hungry and Hellman's appeared yesterday and tomatoes this morning. So, I'm munching a tomato sandwich to test drive my bottle of Hellman's. I love the tomato juice mingling with the mayo

    Sometimes a mayo is a bit salty: I like those. But I was just thinking of switching back to MW; I tried some of the low-fat mayo's and didn't get a good reading there. With the info about MW being lower in the negative spec's, that made my mind up for MW.

    I'll still get Hellman's once in a while: I like the relish they add in.

    And I don't mind them calling it sandwich spread, since they have "adulterated" it

    But I can't go along with those who call this whole group of products "salad dressings": I pour salad dressing out of a bottle.

    PS: Tnx 4 the 'tater sald recipe; I'll try it.

    Being from the South..there is nothing else but Duke's Mayo. Was raised on it, raising my son on it, and is all that I will buy. If it's not dukes, will just do without!!!

    Hellman's absolutely sucks! Don't understand why all folks from the North like it so much. Miracle Whip is just too sweet.

    I adore the Miracel Whip. But it hates me. It is made with soybean oil and I have an allergy to soy. I get flu-like symptoms. So mayo it is!

    OK, Babygirl. I am going to Piggly Wiggly tomorrow. I'll buy Dukes and give it a run. You talked me into it.

    I was always told the difference between Mayo and Miracle Whip was one was made with lemon juice and the other with vinegar.

    I'm researching to see if that is true.

    Miracle Whip vs. Mayonnaise


    Anna Williams Print E-mail Add to My Organizer Average Rating: Read Reviews of This Solution
    ? Rate & Review This Solution mayonnaise. Sure, it looks like mayo, but it isn't. Miracle Whip, which made its debut in 1933 at the Chicago World's Fair, is a "dressing." What's the difference? The U.S. Food and Drug Administration requires that anything labeled "mayonnaise" contain a minimum of 65 percent vegetable oil by weight. And though Kraft keeps Miracle Whip's exact oil content a secret, the company confirms that it is too low to meet the mayo standard.
    Miracle Whip isn't fake mayonnaise, exactly. While it contains mayo's key ingredients (egg, soybean oil, vinegar, water), it sets itself apart with a sweet, spicy flavor that some folks prefer. First introduced during the Depression, when its cheaper price made it alluring to people who couldn't afford more highfalutin mayo, it's now caught up, costing about the same amount per ounce as the real thing. At any price, Miracle Whip still has legions of devotees: According to Kraft, it's currently among the grocery industry's 20 top-selling brands. Written by Melissa Clark May 2004
