Mayo or miracle? Which spread has caused more damage to married theatre goers? Discuss

Posted: 5/21/05 at 12:51pm

It has been pointed out in several of the leading NY publications that the widespread use of mayonnaise and miracle whip is causing a tear in the marriages of theatre goers. Is it the odor these spreads leave in the oral cavity long after the sandwich has been consumed?

Why is this occurring. Please state your criteria for your answer.

Oh and on a totally different subject, during study hall, I was asked to become a moderator for this board. I've accepted. My mom says I have to finish my homework first, so I shall be moderating the board from 7:00 to 8:00, then it's off to bed.

Hellman's Mayo is the only way to go. I know nothing of its effect on marriages, however. Miracle Whip tastes like rancid mayonnaise to me.

Hellman's mayo is God's spread. Miracle Whip was sent by Satan.

Only Hellman's Mayo. However, I just tried French's Gourmayo with wasabi and really liked it.

Miracle Whip is the sweet stuff.
I hate it!
When I was a child, I had a friend whose Mother made sandwiches:
Wonder White Bread
Miracle Whip
Tuna with peas
And watercress
I used to ask my Mom to pack me lunch. I could not stomach her sandwiches.
Have you ever tried Tuna with peas AND MIRACLE WHIP.
My Mother would pack me Tuna with onions on rye and carrot sticks. The Mayo was Helmann's.
Jews hate Wonder bread and Tuna with peas!

I grew up on Miracle Whip, which probably explains a lot... the first time I had Mayonaisse was at a friends house, when I was a teenager - I thought I was eating a new kind of lunchmeat... it was the most wonderful thing I'd ever had...

but, my Mother also made me peanut butter and jelly with butter, so what can I say?

Being from a New York Jewish background, we nevver had peanut butter and jelly, which seemed very Midwestern Goyish. We sometimes had cream cheese and jelly on toast sandwiches as a snack.
