Mayo only, that "tang" in Miracle Whip tastes like "rancid" to me. Sorry, I know my taste buds are getting old.

My mother used MW and I hated it. I was so glad when I rented my first apartment and went food shopping for the first time and bought my first jar of Kraft Mayo. Since then I am still a fan, but I also like to make my own mayo when I can get farm fresh eggs, because I like to use olive oil. I heard that Kraft has one made with olive oil, but I haven't tried it yet.
Have you also noticed the same thing about pickles? Either people are for sweet or dill. Most of the Mayo people I know like dill. My mother liked sweet.

And I like both while despising mayo and MW.

Makes sense.

I like both mayo and miracle whip. Depends on my mood on which one I use.

Sorry but Miracle Whip is a crappy imitation of mayo. It was developed during the Great Depression as a cheaper alternative. Not that Hellmann's mayo is much better...that stuff is low quality and tastes like it too.

I really love the imported stuff, like Delouis Fils Garlic Mayonnaise. I still want to try making my own someday...

LOL, I don't know of anyone that uses Miracle Whip, but I'm in the south. I think I remember trying it once and it having a sweeter taste to it. yuck!

Anyways, it's Blue Plate mayo for me.

All my dad, who was from Maryland, would ever use was Hellman's Mayo. My family from the south, however, all used Miracle Whip.

I was never a Mayo person. It always grossed me out. But then we started trying the healthier versions (canola mayo, safflower mayo, etc.), and we've now been using Vegenaise for years for things like tuna sandwiches and potato salads, etc. It just feels healthier... and has a nice clean taste to it. You can add apple cider vinegar to whatever you're making to add a tangy sort of flavor to it.
