Title: Which mayonnaise brand do you prefer?
Post by: Oerdin on August 31, 2023, 02:15:42 PM
I grew up with Best Foods and while it is very consistent it just lacks flavor in my mind plus the ingredients include a lot of questionable processed stuff.  Now days my go to is McCormick's from their plant in Mexico with added lime juice.  It is sold at a good price, I like the extra spices they use (I usually add more) plus it doesn't include all the artificial junk that Best Foods does.  I do wish they didn't use soy bean oil but for the price it is pretty good.  My runner up is Sir Kensington's organic mayonnaise made with avocado oil and this would be my top pick but I don't want to pay $10 for a small jar of mayo.

Which brand of mayo do you prefer and why?

I've been using Sir Kensington's Classic mayo.
Non-GMO; made from free-range eggs; the ingredients list doesn't contain anything I can't pronounce.

Tastes pretty good too.

Hellmann's mayonnaise is my family's favourite.

I like Hellmans too when Miracle Whip won't do.

My children liked Miracle Whip better when they were little, but now as adults they like Hellmann's better.

I like Miracle Whip on salami sandwiches, but if I'm making egg salad or something like that I use real Mayo.

Hellman's and Best Foods are the same company selling the exact same product.  They just use different brands names in different regions of the country.

I need to try that one.  I heard about it but have never seen it in a store.  Many years ago I bought a small squeeze bottle of Kewpie (a Japanese mayo) but found it to sweet for my liking.

We don't usually have it in the fridge either. When I slaughter a turkey, I keep some around for sandwiches. I don't know which brand.

I only eat or serve Kewpie Mayo.

There are other mayonnaise brands I equally like but are hard to source in the West, so I gave up.
