Yeah I dunno. Miracle whip is gross as fuck.

Ah. I get it, no one actually looked up the article.

As Boston chef Scott Jones told Ari LeVaux, “The magic that sets mayonnaise above Coke and Heinz is that mayo is a perfect flavor carrier.” It just makes everything better. Need proof? Do other condiments have pale imitators like Miracle Whip and Just Mayo and Vegenaise? I don’t think so!

I know the difference the problem is people replacing mayo with miracle whip.

No idea what that is, but the picture is very much of Hellman's mayonnaise, which is the most mayonnaise of all the mayonnaises

Why do you seem to think I don't know what Mayo is? I just said I prefer mayo and loathe miracle whip that kinda says all that needs to be said.

What do you want about? I don't even know what miracle whip is, I've never heard of it, but the picture is of Hellman's which is definitely mayonnaise and not salad cream or anything else

Did you read the article? That's where you're confused here. I know what both are, you're preaching to the choir.

Read the article you'll be less confused.
