You have to break some eggs to make an omelet and, according to a lawsuit from the maker of Hellmanns, the same goes for mayonnaise.
The food company Unilever is suing a California company that uses the word Mayo in its sandwich spread name, saying that federal regulators and dictionaries define mayonnaise as a spread that contains eggs.
The suit claims false advertising by the company Hampton Creek for labeling its egg-free product Just Mayo. Unilever says in a complaint filed in federal court that the word mayo implies that the product is mayonnaise, and Just Mayo is stealing market share from Hellmanns.

The Mayonnaise is the theme song of the city of Mayo in Florida. The tune comes from some old French marching song.
They are the same product:
The Mayo clinic has made great strides in conquering the deadly allergies to salad dressing.
My Mom who grew up in Astoria, NYC, who is 100 ,rembers Mr. Hellmann himself selling his Mayo door to door!
Its not mayo, its the product from the realm of angels, that heavenly delight: Miracle Whip
It's all crap. eggs or no. It is the paste that keeps the hamburger from falling apart.
Remembers
Their beef is someone selling "mayo" that is not, in fact, mayonnaise.
Conservatives should realize that words mean things.
Okay...you got me....last time I lived “in the Rockies” was when I was stationed at Pete Field (yes, FIELD) in 1970 at Cheyenne Mountain. I was there for 5.5 months after an overseas tour to Okinawa and then sent to the Azores (then to Germany, then England) all consecutive. I did 8 years, nearly 7 of them overseas. I hardly got to know Colorado Springs, but when I saw it again 30 years later, I did not like it at all.
For those not old as us, I believe that is Virginia Mayo.....funny dude....Kudos....
The guy who started this is a lib. I didn’t know and I just bought some at Costco. We will try it but I won’t be buying any more.

All that “mayonnaise” means is a sauce conceived in Mahón, Spain. Ingredients not specified.
What of the original “ketchup”, a fish sauce with no tomato content whatsoever?
The Berman’s is good to the last scrape of the jar. The homemade stuff, you gotta use within a week or so.
I never liked Miracle Whip.
A great burger is juicy. And the resultant juice/mayo/ketchup slurry essential to great flavor.
Ketchup is tomato catsup.
I’d rather save a dollar and buy a decent store brand than waste my hard earned money on a label.
Have y’all noticed quart jars of mayo aren’t 32 oz. anymore? They look like 32 oz but have a huge indention in the botton which brings the “new and improved” size to only 30 oz. Just like the small cans of 7.5 oz of tuna are now 5 oz. and 2.5 oz. of that is water leaving only 2.5 oz. for actual tuna. You have to go through many more cans of tuna and jars of mayo to make tuna salad these days. Warning — make adjustments when using older recipes.
