Default Cains

Only Cains Mayonnaise for me, but it's exclusive to New England and NY. Whenever friends visit, I beg them to bring me a jar or two. You can get it online, but you pay triple the price...

Thanks for any replies!
there is only a small difference between the two. Hellmans' ingredients has one that is inflamatory where Duke's doesn't otherwise they are pretty much identical.

Mayo is, simply put, egg and oil. Miracle whip has a unique flavor. This Jersey Girl grew up on Hellmans although my mother-in-law made Cole slaw using Miracle Whip and it was amazing. It’s actually a salad dressing according to the label. It’s good with anything with a tomato IMHO. Aren’t we happy to know that we have choices?

Smile Hellmans vs Dukes

For me Hellman's has a tangy taste, whereas Duke's is creamy and smooth. Duke's is the only choice for a southerner, which you now are!

Default Have you tried Blue Plate?

I am a Miracle Whip person from childhood. I never liked the flavor of Hellmann's mayo. About a year ago I tried Blue Plate because MW what not available. There was no turning back! I just love Blue Plate, it has a mellow real mayo flavor similar to Miracle Whip.

Blue Plate Ingredients
Soybean Oil, Distilled Vinegar, Egg Yolks, Water, Sugar, Salt, Calcium Disodium EDTA (to Protect Quality), Natural Flavor.

Cains is best. Couldn’t get Hellmans at the small country store when at our Maine house. Tried Cains and loved it. We are not mayo snobs but when we can get Dukes or Cains that is what we prefer. Hellmans not so much

We prefer the taste and texture of Duke's to Hellman's. We grew up on Hellman's and MW but tried Duke's our first winter in FL because it has no sugar.

Me too. It was all my mom could afford feeding 7 on one income so she could be home with us full time. I loved it then, but didn’t know any better. Now I’d never eat it simply because of how fake and unhealthy it is, but having grown up in California I had no access to Duke’s until we moved here last year. We used Best Foods or a Trader Joe’s brand mayo. Dukes is good, but I consume very little mayo these days because they all have unhealthy processed seed oils in them, and I mainly eat a meat based low carb diet.
