Big day of mayo taste testing yesterday. We broke out the Kewpie Mayo, Duke’s Mayo, and Miracle Whip. Actually, we got the two mayonnaise brands out for dishes Sena had planned. We got the Miracle Whip out just to compare the taste of all three.
I thought the Miracle Whip was tangy. Sena actually thought it was pretty good too. Miracle Whip was sweeter than the other two (but not cloying!). Duke’s Mayo was definitely strong on the egg yolk flavor. I also thought it was salty. Kewpie Mayo was very different from the other two but it was difficult to tell just how, exactly.
We tried out the Duke’s Mayo on egg salad sandwiches. Sena’s verdict on Duke’s Mayo is that she doesn’t really like it and prefers Hellmann’s. I’m indifferent to it. I think it makes for a pretty good egg salad sandwich, but I prefer Miracle Whip. And Sena is becoming a little more partial to Miracle Whip.
