miracle whip was the working class mayo in my area (western us)

i can't even remember the taste tho
I tried miracle whip, it was nasty, and I like mayo and salad cream.

more like disaster whip

Ah, back when I was playing around with rudeness as an online style. (Glad I got over it.)

you were right though, mayo haters are snowflakes
j/k
― Give me a Chad Smith-type feel (map), Wednesday, 16 September 2020 22:32 (three years ago) link
what's odd about mayo haters isn't that they hate mayo, but that they feel it necessary to argue that mayo hate is a fundamental value of all right-thinking humans and eating mayo is ipso facto evidence of depravity.

ok. now do carrots.

carrots are better than mayo

it’s not too hard to make mayonnaise, it just requires an egg, a neutral flavored oil, and a little mustard, wine vinegar, salt, and lemon juice, and a food processor
― Dan S, Thursday, 17 September 2020 01:43 (three years ago) link
i think i bought some bad mayo, even though the date implies it should be good? wasn't right.
mayo is probably ruined for a few years now.
― treeship., Thursday, 17 September 2020 01:52 (three years ago) link
I can relate to that. it will hopefully not be for that long. I couldn’t eat a lot of foods for a while after my college organic chemistry lab experience
― Dan S, Thursday, 17 September 2020 01:57 (three years ago) link
you don't need a food processor to make much of anything, certainly not mayonnaise.
i will say i found it to be a lot less weird once i learned how to make it from scratch.
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 17 September 2020 01:58 (three years ago) link
when mayo gets hard it taste funay
― Neanderthal, Thursday, 17 September 2020 02:07 (three years ago) link
maybe it is not necessary, but my food processor is one of the best cooking items I’ve ever owned, and has made many of my kitchen experiences much easier

I’m making a batch of potato salad tomorrow and will think of this thread when I’m adding the mayonnaise
― Dan S, Thursday, 17 September 2020 02:50 (three years ago) link
I want you to think of me when you're adding that mayo to your potato salad tomorrow, Dan S
― the burrito that defined a generation, Thursday, 17 September 2020 03:08 (three years ago) link
in fact every time you add mayo to potato salad I want you think of me and only me, Dan S
― the burrito that defined a generation, Thursday, 17 September 2020 03:09 (three years ago) link
from yr recent posts seems you've been "adding mayo" to a stiff stock to National Geographic vids
― Neanderthal, Thursday, 17 September 2020 03:10 (three years ago) link
shhh
xp respond to these messages so that I know you have received them, Dan S
― the burrito that defined a generation, Thursday, 17 September 2020 03:11 (three years ago) link
:) I’m trusting that these posts are joshing, but I don’t know what they really mean and am going to bed now so that I can be fresh for making potato salad tomorrow
― Dan S, Thursday, 17 September 2020 03:40 (three years ago) link
xp, always proofread your burns before hitting "post," Neanderthal. "sock" not "stock."

we should do a duke’s vs hellmann’s poll
― sound of scampo talk to me (El Tomboto), Thursday, 17 September 2020 05:11 (three years ago) link
I mean the write-ins for kewpie would probably win but whatever, food nerds
― sound of scampo talk to me (El Tomboto), Thursday, 17 September 2020 05:12 (three years ago) link
I've realized quite recently that I prefer hellman's to kewpie. have them both in the fridge at the moment and basically never draw for the kewpie. they don't sell duke's here afaict
― rascal clobber (jim in vancouver), Thursday, 17 September 2020 16:47 (three years ago) link
I like mayonnaise fine, but cannot deal with kewpie, it just tastes so sweet and chemical and inorganic
― 好 now 烧烤 (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Thursday, 17 September 2020 16:49 (three years ago) link
kewpie ingredients: veggie oil, egg yolk, vinegar, salt, msg, spice, natural flavorhellman's ingredients: soybean oil, water, whole eggs and egg yolks, vinegar, salt, sugar, lemon juice, calcium disodium edta, natural flavors.
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Thursday, 17 September 2020 16:58 (three years ago) link
why does kewpie taste so sweet then?
― 好 now 烧烤 (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Thursday, 17 September 2020 17:01 (three years ago) link
I also perceive kewpie as being sweet, and was surprised to find there is no sugar in it.
hellman's is definitely tangier, I suppose it has both vinegar and lemon juice
― rascal clobber (jim in vancouver), Thursday, 17 September 2020 17:03 (three years ago) link
apple cider or rice vinegar probably
― brimstead, Thursday, 17 September 2020 17:13 (three years ago) link
(in kewpie)
I have never heard of duke’s or kewpie mayonnaise
don't think apple cider vinegar or rice vinegar (if it's not seasoned rice vinegar) are that sweet. "natural flavors" seems like it covers a lot of territory in terms of sweetness
I like seasoned rice vinegar for sprinkling over sushi rice while it steams the moment after it is cooked, otherwise don't use it
― Dan S, Thursday, 17 September 2020 23:29 (three years ago) link
Good fries dipped in good mayo are good. The French are 100% otm on this.
― hey, trust the fungus! (pomenitul), Thursday, 17 September 2020 23:31 (three years ago) link
Hellman's vegan mayo is legit.
― Bidh boladh a' mhairbh de 'n láimh fhalaimh (dowd), Thursday, 17 September 2020 23:59 (three years ago) link
I like Hellman's, but prefer Duke's why because it's more mayonnaisey
― naked and sexually active alien (rip van wanko), Friday, 18 September 2020 00:15 (three years ago) link
I tolerate Kewpie now, especially on Okonomiyaki and hard-boiled eggs.
― rb (soda), Friday, 18 September 2020 02:03 (three years ago) link
I am half-convinced you are all making up this Kewpie shit
it sounds like the name of a mayonnaise with a vaguely racist Youtube gaming channel

Ah, this thread again.
― TikTok to the (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 18 September 2020 13:55 (three years ago) link
I do feel like hating mayo is the new bacon/pizza/whatever
I mean I hardly ever eat mayo but it's... fine?
British people: is there something working-class about salad cream or am I crazy?
maybe? I know mayonnaise seemed kind of fancy when I was a kid, maybe because of the French name. and we did used to use salad cream instead.

thinly veiled metaphor iirc
― naked and sexually active alien (rip van wanko), Friday, 18 September 2020 14:10 (three years ago) link
Kewpie is 100% racist, and I resisted buying it for that reason. But then again I am a Quaker and I eat the dumbass oats for breakfast every day, so I’ve got no leg to stand on.
― rb (soda), Friday, 18 September 2020 14:25 (three years ago) link
Thinking a lot about becoming one of those guys who keeps a lil' squeeze bottle of homemade mayo in the fridge.
― Simon H., Friday, 18 September 2020 15:53 (three years ago) link
Simon's got a squeeze bottle, blender doesn't sleep at night.

mayo is not “fine”!!!
