Japanese mayo is great. Not as sour as regular mayonnaise.

I see a few responses on here about "miracle whip". For those ignoramuses amongst us, what is this thing?

A decent mayonnaise is quite simple in the making. Like 6 Ingredients: 2 egg yolks 250 ml vegetable oil 2 tsp lemon juice salt & pepper ½ tsp mustard

Perfect with chips or for meat. I think it is birthing wrong with it, just a bit tricky on the temperature.

But luckily tastes are different. So, if you don’t like it, just don’t make it.

I think you suck, that's my personal thought on mayo

It's one of those things that I find good to eat a little bit if it's with other food, but too much makes it nasty. Same way with pickles, relish, sauerkraut. Great topping to add flavor, terrible as the main flavor of a dish/meal

I use it for tuna or egg salad, but that's it. I wish I could find something that works just as good but I actually like.

It's aioli that someone figured out how to sell before they finished making it

It's what I imagine goblin cum tastes like. Fucking vile.

It makes for a decent replacement of butter on grilled cheese

Properly made mayonnaise, with decent mustard? Fuck yeah.

My issue is just when meh mayo goes on everything. Butter usually tastes better.

(But i also dont eat it)

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.

I think mayonnaise is so easy and cheap to make at home I don't know why people buy it in a store. Here's my recipe:

• 1.5 tsp (7.5 ml) paprika
• 0.5 tsp (2.5 ml) powdered chile
• 1 tsp (5 ml) lime juice
• 4 tsp (20 ml) water
• 4 tsp (20 ml) malt vinegar
• 1.5 tsp (7.5 ml) dry mustard
• 2 egg yolks

Mix this all together to combine, then drizzle in a little less than 2 cups of vegetable oil (480 ml) while mixing vigorously. It will take some practice to get the timing right, but once it starts sounding like you're mixing mac and cheese you can add the oil more quickly. If it doesn't break it should start thickening and getting creamy.

I usually make mine in the food processor.

Food is food

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!

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.

It's ok on burgers and sandwiches, but otherwise I don't care much for it.

My favourite use for mayo is as a butter substitute specifically for making grilled cheese sandwiches. It fries up really nice on the bread because it's eggy

I used to it eat a lot of it as a child. But now that I think more about nutrition it is a rare treat for me. I don't buy it nor keep any at my home, because if I buy it I'll eat it. If I go out and eat fries I'll usually eat them with mayonnaise. I do like the taste, especially in egg sandwiches.

PREACH

Would you like some slime on your sandwich

No I wouldn't thanks tho
