I legitimately never tried mayonnaise (knowingly) until I was like 15. My family bought Miracle Whip and I cannot explain to you how much I despise it. But we would occasionally get Subway and I LOVED their mayonnaise so I was very confused for a long time lol. Needless to say, no more miracle whip for me!

I like all three but i use them for different things really. Kewpie and helmans are my goto for most mayo things sandwiches and dipping and making sauces and are basically interchangeable for me. but I really do prefer using miracle whip as a dressing for tuna, chicken, and pasta salads. mainly because thats what i grew up with and how my family made them. theres room in my fridge for all three. also i usually buy olive oil version of the helmans not the original i dont find them to be all that different tasting but its just what i grab.

I have a chef friend who wrote many cook books and cooked for michelin starred restaurants. One time I asked him why he doesn't have a recipe for mayo and he said that in the end he prefers helman's to most homemade and even pro ones. I tend to agree, although, I'm making flavoured mayo from time to time. Re MSG... yes, people need to snap out of the BS. Every time you reduce tomatoes you get MSG.

I found it yesterday in an Asian specialty shop in my city in Denmark. It came with the insane price tag of 65 DKK (~$9.64) for a 500 gram bottle, while real "quality" mayo from a normal shop costs like 15 DKK (~$2.22). I'll try it today - it better be worth the price! :P

I'm looking forward to trying the Japanese Mayo. I did go to my kitchen we have Dukes and and Kraft Mayo in my American kitchen. Dukes have 0 sugar naturally in Kraft has less than 2% which is not even on the nutrition label ...a 0 carbohydrates or sugar. I didn't think they did. As mayonnaise isn't sweet unless you're using low fat or even miracle whip which yuck! That stuff Definitely have sugar. It's sweet and it just is nasty lol. I'll definitely be trying out the Japanese Mayo this week. We love mayo in this house so I am excited to try it. What would American Mayo taste like with a little bit of MSG added.

I am a Duke's man myself but I said, "ah what the hell" so I smeared some on a ham and cheese sandwich and it tasted overly processed and synthetically sweet. It was legitimately gross. I thought maybe there was something wrong with me, or perhaps it had been sitting there a little too long before I got to it but it's nice to know that It does have a reputation and I can now jump on the "let's all shit on miracle whip" bandwagon because that stuff is just bad. It's too white too, shit looked like toothpaste. Now I've never tried kewpie but from the looks of it I might just have to.

@trblcleft Год назад

I love miracle whip but it is not mayo. To suggest it is primarily a survival food meant for the great depression is offensive because it is delicious regardless of the era in which it was created. IMO, miracle whip is more like a dressing that can be customized just like more traditional Mayo is not Ranch. Similarly, kewpie is way sweeter than regular American mayo, and I thought it was disgusting the first time I had it 15 years ago, but now I've grown used to the very rich and distinct flavor it provides. Compared to the more blank canvas of duke's/hellmans, Miracle Whip is more flavorful, acidic and has some sweetness as you mentioned. I use all three of them differently and sometimes together depending on what I'm in the mood for. I like to compare to having gelato, ice cream, and sorbet in the freezer, there are some similarities but all are delicious depending on your craving.

I put it on sandwiches, hot dogs with mustard, brats, i make Spicy mayo, it sounds gross, but add some along with an an egg and some shredded garlic to your instant ramen to make it richer and creamier. Pure umami. The way of ramen shows this method, it's popular in japan i guess and after trying it i see why. Just have to get the right amount of water because it dilutes the soup base just a tad.

Miracle whip never really was supposed to substitute for real mayo. It was like magarine a light version of something. In some salads, etc. salad mayo or mircale whip is actually a little less hefty and with its acidity you can eat more :) That is where it already stopps for me as well because reaal good mayo is great stuff.....sadly all american stuff tastes even worse than anything else...even here in europe it is hard to find good mayo because people want "light" stuff and reading 80% fat on the box seems to work and people actually dont want to buy good mayo. Same with proper milk. People here dring half fat milk, H-milk (which islonglasting milk and tastes gros to me). Thats why some homecooks here have really twisted behaviours and tastebuds. :)
