Mayo is the BEST!
Miracle Whip-YARGH!
It’s just too sweet!
It’s okay to make ham salad sandwiches.
But it tastes REALLY strange in tuna salad, or chicken salad.
When I visited the mid-west (hubby hails from Nebraska)
I ordered a chicken salad sub, and it was made with Miracle Whip, and had relish in it!

It’s handy to make coleslaw dressing, or thousand Island dressing, but that’s it!
Butter on sandwiches? My granny and mom did that a lot. I thought it was a Midwestern t thing.
Some people like the Potato Salad in containers and at deli counters, I can beat it any time, and I use Mayo
