I prefer Miracle Whip because it has a great sweet flavor to it.

Neither, A sandwich just isn't a sandwich without the great taste of mustard. ;)

Whichever is the healthiest and has less fat in it.

The Dilemma: Two thick white dressings with similar flavor in similar-looking jars are bearing down on you from your refrigerator, and you’re asking yourself just one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?

People You Can Impress: deli-goers and anyone killing time in the checkout line.

The Quick Trick: Taste them both side by side. The sweeter one is Miracle Whip.

The Explanation: In 1756, the French under Louis François Armand de Vignerot du Plessis, duc de Richelieu, captured Mahón on the Spanish-held island of Minorca. In honor of this victory, the duc’s chef created a new dressing for his master: Mahonnaise. It wasn’t until 1905, however, at Richard Hellmann’s New York deli, that Americans got to taste the goods. But boy, did it catch on! Within seven years, he’d mass-marketed the condiment as Hellmann’s Blue Ribbon Mayonnaise.

To be frank, mayo is one of those love-it-or-hate-it things. The lovers know that, in its most authentic form, mayo’s a pretty simple affair: raw egg yolks, oil, lemon juice or vinegar, and spices. Not much room for improvement.

But in 1933, Kraft Foods though differently. Inventor Charles Chapman’s patented emulsifying machine allowed regular mayonnaise to be evenly blended with cheaper dressings and more than 20 different spices (plus sugar). The result was Miracle Whip, which debuted at the 1933 Chicago World’s Fair. Promising to create "Salad Miracles with Miracle Whip Salad Dressing," the Whip was an instant hit (Note: It’s not known if the dressing is responsible for any non-salad-related miracles.)

The main difference between Miracle Whip and mayonnaise are the sweeteners: high-fructose corn syrup and sugar are the fourth and fifth ingredients, respectively, of Miracle Whip.

Miracle Whip.

I've got a sandwich I'm kind of partial to. Wheat bread, turkey, salami, miracle whip, cheese, and mustard. Good stuff.
(Bread - Mustard - Cheese- Turkey - Salami - Cheese - Miracle Whip - Bread being the arrangement of the sandwich)

You can't have mustard on the cheese side, the cheese goes on the mayo side mustard on the meat side... where is your sandwhich etiquette?

Sandwich sounds great although I would swap the salami for ham

Thrown out the window, along with the spoiled ham, which is why I wound up using salami.

Having Miracle Whip on BLT's are a beautiful thing and having that on sandwiches are great.

I cant stand Miracle Whip , when i was a kid, we never had mayo, cause MW was cheaper (and we were kind of poor), well, once I tasted mayo, I never wanted Miracle Whip again.

I like both, althought I haven't bought Miracle Whip in a couple of years, but I will my next grocery trip. I also mix mayo and mustard. I grew up with Miracle Whip. My mother didn't like mayo.

I like Miracle Whip Light.

Me, too. It tastes better and has fewer calories. I don't use it very often, though. :)

I like both Miracle Whip Light and Regular Miracle Whip. What about the Fat Free Miracle Whip?

To me, mayonnaise tastes like semi liquified silly putty....blah!

It's not bad when used in recipes, but I wouldn't use it on a slice of tomato where you want the flavour burst.

I used to love Miracle Whip, but my husband never did like it. So when we got married we started buying Best Foods (aka Hellman's) and I found that I like it a lot better.

OH Nuts!

I like them both - that's the problem - even when I was losing weight I had to have my mayo - but I just used a lot less of it. I love Miracle Whip too - but- when you go to stores you can get those little packets of mayo - and I always take an extra one - so this way I only have very little in the house - otherwise I'd be putting the darn stuff on every sanwhich I ate. And, for those of you who need to gain weight, french fries and mayo is just plain yummy!

I've seen commercials for Duke's when I'm in other states, but I don't think they sell it here in FL.

Mayo for me. Miracle Whip always tasted a kinda funny to me.

My friend has a weird food combination that she's been eating for years, she likes peanut butter & MW sandwiches!! Well, it's weird for me!!
