Mine is still thick, >but it tastes completely blah. The housebrand I just finished tastes >100 times better. What you're tasting in the house brand mayo is a greater salt content... I don't want all that excess salt in cold cut sandwiches, tuna salads, and the like... most of the dishes folks use mayo with are already plenty salty. I prefer Hellman's because its texture is consistant, always thick and fluffy... the house brands typically have a slimey greasy texture. Obviously notbob didn't refrigerate his properly and probably contaminated it by inserting an unclean spreader.... I often notice folks leave the mayo jar out for hours (with the lid off) and everyone at the table reaches in with whichever utensil they already used to eat with. When Hellman's mayo looks like notbob describes it's an indication that's it's already spoiled by bacteria due to **** poor food handling habits. When serving mayo to guests it's wise to place some on the table in a small bowl and let them help themselves, when the meal is over toss whatever remains. It's not smart to put the entire jar on the table for folks to help themselves. Even for my own use I take what I want when preparing food on the kitchen counter and then the jar goes right back in the fridge, it never goes on the table to sit there. People like notbob ought to use individual serve packets like those at the fast food joints. http://www.childcarefood.com/MAYONNA...04_case .html http://www.webstaurantstore.com/85/c...FQdU4AodYWoAuQ |
