And I realize I ought to be making my own mayo from scratch. I have plans for that....eventually!<br /><br />HMagicHands - Welcome! So glad you decided to fit yourself into the comments section. There are times when I wish the Hub and I were further along in our journey towards more healthy eating. But, we are taking it a few steps at a time which means he stays on board with my efforts.TexasDebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11214888876514137890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859291696897577217.post-86523436594059214862009-10-25T17:15:08.208-05:002009-10-25T17:15:08.208-05:00I have to say you would have a hard time categoriz...I have to say you would have a hard time categorizing Jim and me if you came and looked at the condiments in our refrigerator. The only mayonnaise you will find here is home made from farm eggs, lemon juice, dijon mustard, garlic and extra virgin olive oil. It isn't in a jar, it is a crockery ramekin. <br /><br />Another big difference is that in this house there are absolutely no soda products of any kind. If my guests want something to drink, they are offered water, juice, tea, coffee, or home made beer or wine from our vineyard. <br /><br />I'm not sure where I fit, but I feel pretty fit.healingmagichandshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03785882461027155830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859291696897577217.post-39652007151455315802009-10-22T07:53:38.258-05:002009-10-22T07:53:38.258-05:00Hold the mayo:-)
Definitely hold the mayo!
Those ...Hold the mayo:-)<br />Definitely hold the mayo!<br /><br />Those two anyways. Has the composition changed significantly over the decades?<br />Unless either has a good proportion of true Dijon mustard from France, as does the one from our major supermarket Sainsbury's, I would never be tempted.<br /><br />Actually most of my sandwiches are made from Ryevita and freshly whipped cream. <br /><br />Over here in the UK Hellman's is now using free-range eggs. So they say.jonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859291696897577217.post-47447967940720596042009-10-18T21:48:57.241-05:002009-10-18T21:48:57.241-05:00Oh, Iris.

I remember realizing I was eating real mayo at my best friend's house (around age 11)and thinking it tasted kind of sour and oily. But her parents were both college professors, so surely they had more sophisticated palates, I thought. <br /><br />I've never bought Miracle Whip as an adult, and now I mostly buy mayo (Spectrum Organic) for my husband because it's so fattening, although I do like the taste now and will use a tiny bit on my own sammies sometimes.<br /><br />I have another long-winded story from childhood re your two kinds of people theory, but mine is based on the two local phone prefixes available at the time, which I assigned (in my mind) to political affiliations... hee heeIrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05517165081477969468noreply@blogger.com
