Since it seems that we're looking for people's opinions on mayonnaise, I will add that I hated mayonnaise from the time it was first introduced to me as a child.  But my mother bought Miracle Whip which had more sugar added and that made it especially repulsive for me, so perhaps I had an inaccurate impression of mayonnaise in general.  My mother also had a recipe for a chocolate cake that used mayonnaise instead of butter, and this was horrendous and unbelievable to me, so I blacked out the mayonnaise from the recipe, to no avail since she knew it was mayonnaise that was blacked out from the recipe anyway.  Now as an adult I tolerate it, and will add it to tuna, but otherwise never choose it.  I can't understand how many Europeans will eat their french fries with mayonnaise.  To me that's like eating fat with some oil added for flavour.

I'm not too fond of Mayo myself. It's a little cool in the winter.
