And raisins instead of grapes (there is a flavor difference, Mom used racist (white) grapes.<br /><br />Got it's start in the days when salads first came along, and food storage for fresh vegetables didn't really exist. Thus, carrots, nuts and grapes or raisins.Beanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15293778848879361153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1406088964942152547.post-89611086544520191592021-03-08T18:39:21.234-05:002021-03-08T18:39:21.234-05:00Great grandma McThag used it to make some sort of ...Great grandma McThag used it to make some sort of apple salad with marshmallows, nuts and grapes.

We did have access sometimes to a US commissary, but there was never 48 different types of ranch, thousand island, roquefort, etc. We ate what we could get...and didn't read labels much...J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14422291455370710661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1406088964942152547.post-32612316441998544252021-03-08T14:54:30.091-05:002021-03-08T14:54:30.091-05:00I hadn't noticed but the only uses I have for ...I hadn't noticed but the only uses I have for mayonnaise are binder for tuna salad and base stock for 1000 island dressing.

There is no middle ground about Miracle Whip.<br /><br />Knowing that divide exists, I am baffled that people still refer to "salad dressing" as mayonnaise. They only look similar.<br /><br />That aside, are you content with the changes to the texture and mouth-feel made after they went water based? It reminds me of a thin and wispy whipped cream. Plus recipes that use it don't stand up well without the oil.Angus McThaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09295013525738248801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1406088964942152547.post-25600177521187131082021-03-08T14:30:48.648-05:002021-03-08T14:30:48.648-05:00Miraclewhip, you either love it or hate it.

I didn't know the formula change, but Duke's has long been a favorite in our household.<br /><br />This post reminds me of the canned 'spreadables' sold in the 1970's.
