What is the BEST mayonnaise? What brand of mayonnaise is best? I’ve used Kraft Mayonnaise for years. YEARS. Like 35 YEARS! and that was as a cook, that was not counting when I was growing up.

Lots of people noticed a change. Mostly only loyal users like myself. Due to the rising cost of Kraft Mayonnaise over the past year or so, we had decided to switch anyway. But now it will be for sure.

I started trying different mayonnaise brands. Thinking of how good homemade mayonnaise tastes, but it has a shorter shelf life. Mayonnaise is a Southern Food Staple. Oh my I am going to have to buy a small jar of EVERY brand at the market, and taste test. And potato salad test. And salad test, and sandwich test; I can see lots of tests going on here. Hmmmm.

I started getting the LITTLE jars so I was not stuck with some gross mayonnaise that everybody hated.

I have made homemade mayonnaise and it is pretty easy to do. It does not store as long, but I just made smaller batches.

I don’t want some funky spiced up messed up mayonnaise. Mayonnaise is used for too many things. I bought the Kraft Olive Oil Mayo once, it SOUNDED good, but I will have to sneak it in some dishes here and there to use it up, the family did not like it. I don’t like low fat mayonnaise. Oh I have TRIED to like it cause that is what I need to use on my “diet.” But I cannot sacrifice my lovely Southern Potato Salad to just ANY mayonnaise.

I’m not sure if you have some of the brands where you are that we have here. Such as Bama, Deep South. There is Duke’s. Lots of folks swear by Hellmanns Mayonnaise.

So, let’s hear it. We want to know what mayonnaise you are using, how long have you used it, and why? Why can’t I spell Hellmanns, I keep trying! Heck, earlier today I had to remember there were two n’s in mayonnaise.

So, come forth you knowledgeable mayonnaise experts, share your SECRETS!
