30. Oh I know. It makes me want to head up to NC and see my granny. I miss
her big southern suppers. There were never less than 15 food items on the table. Stacks of sliced tomatoes, fried okra, a big cake of corn bread, buttered green beans, mac and cheese, so much more.

31. Depends what it's for.
Mayo on sandwiches. For making tuna or chicken salad, half and half with a tiny bit of sugar, along with celery, salt and pepper. And halved grapes in the chicken salad.

33. Miracle Whip is vile.
Mayo...if that's all there is to choose.

Coleman's Hot English Mustard kicks the ass of both!

34. Mayo but I only eat home made.
1 cup of light olive oil, 1 egg, 1 lemon, pinches of salt and pepper, and water to thin the mayonnaise. You can add mustard as well as different kinds of vinegars rather than using lemon juice.

1 to 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice. The lemon will lend acid to the mayonnaise. Acid helps flavor the mayonnaise, as well as fending off any bacteria that wants to live in the egg mixture.

Combine salt and pepper, lemon juice, and egg yolk in a mixing bowl. Whisk until a light yellow color is achieved. SLOWLY, pour the oil into the bowl while whisking vigorously. In the beginning of this process, the emulsification has not yet taken place, so it is vital that you introduce (literally) one drop of oil at a time.

As more oil is introduced, the emulsion will become stronger, allowing you to add oil more rapidly. However, you never want more then a thin stream of oil entering the bowl at a time. Continue to whisk constantly. If the mayonnaise starts looking too thick, add enough water to thin it to the consistency you desire. Add about a teaspoon of water at a time. The mayonnaise should begin to ribbon almost immediately, which is a very good sign that the emulsion is working. Once you are out of oil, adjust the seasoning with the lemon juice, salt and pepper.

40. Depends on the sandwich...
Oscar Meyer bologna (mmmmmmm....cancer-causing nitrates) on Wonder Bread? MIRACLE WHIP.

Egg salad with chopped-up celery? MAYO.

These decisions can't be made lightly.
