I had some lovely chicken breast meat from a roast birdy last weekend
and made chicken salad for me and Rob for last night's dinner. I used a
mayo-based dressing to bind it. My dressing was Hellman's mayo with
about 2-1/2 tablespoons homemade lemon apricot jam stirred into it.

I can't believe you adulterated chicken salad with "apricot
jam," though! "The horror!"

lemon apricot jam.
and i don't think anyone who uses <gag> Miracle Whip in
anything has room to complain about adding a touch of lemon
apricot to mayo! sweet stuff is sweet stuff, but lemon apricot

Cherry chipotle relish would be better.

Cherry Chipotle Relish

2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 small onion finely minced(maybe 1/4 cup)
1 garlic clove finely minced
2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce finely chopped
1 cup M.A. Gedney Cherry Preserves
1 tablespoon adobo sauce
1 tablespoon cider vinegar

Heat the oil in a small saucepan and cook the onion and garlic in it for
a few minutes. Add remaining ingredients, bring to a boil, then reduce
heat and simmer for about 5 minutes. Cool before serving with roast meat
(grilled pork is good, too) or with a sandwich. Makes about one cup.
Refrigerate leftovers. It packs a sneaky bite.

I can believe it! I add chutney to some of my chicken salad
dressings, so this makes perfect sense to me. (Of course, I lack
access to Barb's preserves....)

Nonsense. <grin> I'd be happy to send you my price list as long as you
understand that shipping cost is a bitch.

I'm sure it is. If I get desperate enough... Hmmm. RFC-driven
sales... I don't suppose your line is sold anywhere in
Massachusetts. (You do still have some products made by Gedneys
[sp?]?)

The Gedney folks distribute their State Fair Award Winning Recipes line
of pickles and jams outside this region through mybrandsinc.com; there's
a link to it on the Gedney site, http://www.gedneypickle.com; my cherry
jam is on page 5 of the My Brands site. "RFC-driven sales"? My
"line"? LOL!

I'd love a copy of that list, if you don't mind.

I couldn't believe it either. :-P
I wanted to get rid of the jam. It was quite tasty.
I usually use Kraft mayo but figured to try the Hellman's since my days
are getting shorter. It was on my Bucket List.

I bought Hellman's mayo for 30 years or more. Fine Cooking reviewed
all the mayo's on the market from name brand to the local brand. Kraft
mayo won out tops. I bough a jar and will never use Hellmans'
again. The taste, the texture was the best.

Hellmann's Mayonnaise has changed over the years. I tried a
supermarket brand recently and actually prefer it now--and we had
used Hellmann's since I was a kid.

I don't know how you guys can tell one mayo from another. I can
barely tell mayo from miracle whip.

Did you have your tastebuds surgically removed? :-)

I can't stand Miracle Whip in most applications, although there are certain
things it seems perfect for. Yes, there is a *big* difference in taste and
in texture.

Let's just say that I only began to tolerate commercial mayo in any
form (which includes miracle whip) when I reached middle age.... so I
guess the answer is "yes", considering that we lose our taste as we
age.

As best you should, young lady! I'm talking about the jarred stuff
here. White glop, screw top...

Telling the difference is as easy as reading the jar.

Ewwwww. Now THAT is identifiable! I don't think I could ID mayos
in a taste test. Rather, it would be a matter of what I liked and
what I didn't like. The store-bought mayo seems less watery than
the current Hellmann's formula (and I'm not speaking of an LF or
FF formula).
