Mayo vs Miracle Whip

[omicron]

I think Miracle Whip is what you would call salad cream, but I could be wrong?

Cheers,

I'm not sure. Generic supermarket mayonnaise is slightly tangy or tart; proper mayonnaise is rich, creamy and sweet; and as far as I know, the term salad cream isn't used on any products sold in South Australia.

You "pity" him for not knowing about a shitty, fake, processed product, but instead for eating a delicious HOME MADE mayonaise?

I pity you, along with about 95% of America that believes shitty processed fake foods, starbucks coffee, and chain restaurants are real food.  They're not.  They suck.

I'd rather butcher a whale and roll around in its raw yucky fat then choose real mayo over delicous Miracle Whip.


... I also like starbuck's lattes and I grew up in a household where going to the Red Lobster was considered as something reserved for special events and the Olive Garden also being considered as something more then fast food..

and well the majority of the small italian places in pennsyltucky suck anyway, including the last crazy high priced place I went to ($150 bill for me and the gf) which I'd rather kick myself in the crouch then go to again... but the place is so "cool" to the wannabe asshole NYC transplants who think going out to eat is more about the atmosphere then the frikkin food and can justify spending $150 for two people just to say you like going to a "cool" place...

oh, and this particular place is located in an outdoor "lifestyle" shopping mall like those made famous in nice places like SoCal.  Hello dipshits, the weather here sucks at least 1/2 the time in PA and nobody wants to be f'in walking in rain or in 10 deg F coldness going from store to store.  We actually like indoor malls because it gets us out of the shitty ass weather!  But we can't admit to that because those malls are not "cool" and "cultured" and the assclown NYC transplants will think we look like hillbilly's walking in an indoor mall.  Well, go f yourself NYC transplants and I will walking in my indoor mall and enjoy a good tasting meal for $40 for the two of us at the Olive Garden while you walk around freezing you "hip" asses off walking around outside and paying $150 for a meal that tastes like elephant shit but you know its not elephant shit because elephant shit doesn't cost that much and comes in bigger portions....

Your taste buds don't work very well.

[NomisR]

Whales tastes pretty good.

[Raza]

Olive Garden is a nice place for lunch, that's it.  I don't know from what part of PA you are, but there is good food in the right places.

My tastes are largely the result of what I ate when I was growing up. My parents only bought nonfat milk, so to me, 1% and 2% milk just taste too creamy. They bought Adams peanut butter instead of Jif, so I eat that now (although the stirring is still a pain in the ass.) And they bought Miracle Whip instead of mayo.

Mayonnaise doesn't add any taste to a sandwich, just sort of a bland wet taste, but Miracle Whip adds a nice zip that makes the sandwich contents taste fresher.

Mayo doesn't add much flavor cause that's not it's job.  You need to seriously improve your sammich making skills if you're counting on a shitty processed spread to add the flavour.  Flavour comes from the delicious cold cuts, and maybe a tomatoe or oil & vinegar.  Mayo is mainly to keep the sammich from being too dry.  On a burger, mayo prevents the bun from getting soggy via grease absorption.

why not just rub lard on your sammich if you want grease but no flavor?  ...might be a little more healthy actually

Lard doesn't have the creamyness of mayo.

i know not of what this "rig" is...

[Middle_Path]

Thank God we have Lebowski on defense. Rotor, you farking lunatic, miracle whip is bullshit trailer park spread. And Olive Garden, seriously dude? That's not even Italian food. It's TV dinners presented to you in a sort of nice fashion while trying to fill you up with bread/salad. You best be trolling M-F!

The mobile site has a rather small post cutoff.

So what do you think of whole milk?

[Raza]

Whole milk is great.
Tastes like ice cream compared to skim.

Skim milk is horrid - watery, limp and insipid.

[NomisR]

Skim milk is horrid - watery, limp and insipid.

It's milk flavored water basically

[r0tor]

and most of the time it doesn't taste like good water either....

[Rupert]

I've been saying that for literally years.

You Miracle Whip guys   I'm in the home made mayo camp, although I haven't had that in a while.  Go to Trader Joes and get their mayo - not home made, but better than the big label schlock.  A sammich without mayo is like a day without sunshine! And yes, Miracle Whip is best served in a double wide on Wonder Bread.

Coincidentally, there was an episode of good eats on tv last week that was about how to make home-made mayonaisse.  It's pretty easy to make, but the deal killer for me is that it only stays good in the fridge for about a week.

food poisoning from mayo FTMFL!!

[akuma_supreme]

I can't believe this.  4 pages about Mayonnaise vs. Miracle Whip?

This should have been resolved in the first page.  Everyone knows Mayo is superior to that synthetic abomination Miracle Whip.

I think perhaps you missed the implications of wonder bread and double wides.

You would think.  But we have people on this board who think The Olive Garden is fine dining.  I have a feeling there is a strong overlap between the "Olive Garden/Red Lobster is fine dining" crowd and the Miracle Whip crowd.  In that case, they can have their miracle whip - more mayo for the rest of us!

[r0tor]

i laugh at all the mayo people in the hospital because their mayo poisoned them

[r0tor]

... and i went to the olive garden last night!
