Mayo or Miracle Whip?

[Gunny]

Being a good Southern, redneck white boy, I won't touch mayo. Stalin invented it, I'm sure. I just don't know the exact plot behind it.

I'll use MW every time. Sandwiches, tuna salad ....

Anyone else?

I like mayo with lettuce on a cheeseburger. Otherwise I'll always take MW.

I like MW as sandwich spread, but mayo for any recipes.

[shattered]

Both.

Mayo on ham sammiches
MW in egg salad
Both in deviled eggs
MW on chicken sammiches
Mayo on BLTs

Sheesh. Not everything is black and white.

Neither. I also don't like Ketchup, mustard, or steak sauce. Why ruin a good piece of meat?

I don't trust a food product called "Miracle" anything. What miracle exactly did they have to perform to make it edible?

Way to stick something in my head, abbey. Now I have to go find out.

"Current primary ingredients are water, soybean oil, vinegar, HFCS, sugar, modified corn starch, and dried eggs. The HFCS and corn starch are made from non genetically modified maize.^[6] Ingredients making up less than 2% of product include salt, mustard flour, paprika, spice, natural flavor, potassium sorbate, enzyme modified egg yolk, and dried garlic.

Miracle Whip does not meet the minimum requirement of 65% vegetable oil to be labeled as mayonnaise as dictated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration."

When I was a kid we always had Miracle Whip and called it Mayonnaise. We also called all pop coke.

Hah. We never had any mayo.

What people call sodas is regional. When I lived in FL, every convenience store was a 7-11 and any carbonated beverage was a Coke. So you were going to the 7-11 to get a Coke even if you were going to Lil General for a Sprite.

Here, when I was young, they were "sody waters" and you went to the "i-i-i-i-ce house to get one. That's the best way I can put that without say "ass-house".

When I lived in Kansas it was a "pop". The first time I got asked if I wanted a "pop" I was ready to throw down.

Gaffer. Agreed. The way I look at it. Who really cares whether we use Mayo, or MW? And I always called it Coke, or Pepsi. People in the Midwest used Pop, while I remember always hearing everybody say "SODA".

Used to love Miracle Whip in Tuna, with chopped onion, celery, and even Bacon bits (when they were popular).

Why do we always seem to find more reasons to argue, and disagree about the dumbest things these days?

Makes little, if any sense when so much more in this crazy, mixed-up World is GOING DOWN THE TUBES???

Before I read this thread. Miracle Whip wasn't one of the most important things I would have been thinking about.

But then.... Who really cares?

[shattered]

Bacon bits? Oh. Good. God.

Go fry some bacon and crumble it.

The point is, it's something to talk about besides politics, right? This thread came out of a discussion with my gf. That's all. It's not a point of contention. She likes mayo, I like MW. So we have 2 jars in the fridge. THAT simple. It's NOT important. THAT is the point.

It's meant as humor more than anything else, and to lighten the mood. Kinda go with it, huh?

Now you're in trouble. Ms Chef Boy R Dee has arrived. And I was about to open my mouth and say something but then I realized if I ask HER what's the difference between bacon bits and crumbled bacon, she'd tell me. And I don't want to know. I like bacon bits.

And no offense, princess,:bow3::bow3: but that sounded good. Not everyone is a culinary artist like you.
