I avoided it as much as possible... which wasn't perfect by any means.
I always specified no mayonnaise on restaurant sandwiches and we never
used mayo on sandwiches at home. As a kid I preferred German potato
salad to the stuff made with mayo. But if Mom made potato salad with
mayo for dinner, I ate it - or else.

It took marrying a mayo loving man (he even puts it on hamburgers
<shudder>) - and many years of constant exposure for me to come
around. However, it's still not an area where I can discern the fine
differences. It all tastes the same to me.
