I wonder if olive oil mayonnaise really is an adequate condiment, or if I’m like one of those people in The Sixth Sense who don’t know yet that they’re dead.

For me, if you’re even going to bother with the mayo, you’ve got to just fully go for it. None of this halfbuttocksed, substitute or low-fat nonsense.
And I don’t think a life with inadequate condiments is really living.

I’m a “fully go for it” kind of gal myself, but my husband disagrees (as I’ve said). The olive oil mayo is about 100x better than the low-fat mayo, but I just don’t know if it’s better enough. I made a tomato sandwich with it the other day, and it tasted good. Usually nothing reveals the inadequacies of a mayo substitute like a tomato sandwich. Do I trust my tomato sandwich and go ahead and make potato salad with olive oil mayo this summer, just to pacify my husband’s need to offset his culinary guilt born of eating stuff like fois gras? Or is it too much of a risk?

Low fat mayo is an abomination as far as I’m concerned but I’ve never tried the olive oil mayo. I prefer going straight for the ranch dressing on my sandwiches.

I’m not a big mayo fan (and will not reveal my sandwich condiment of choice for fear of being banned from your blog) but the olive oil stuff is yummy. Make a potato salad with it and invite me over!

This is a safe space, Shaz. It is okay to admit you like Miracle Whip here.
Or were you referring to ranch dressing??? (P.S. Jamie–you are banned! No, I’m totally kidding. Ranch dressing is delicious.)
Seriously, even olive-lovers are welcome here. But olives are NOT welcome in my potato salad. (Only olive oil.)

It’s true. I do. I eat Miracle Whip….but not just MW…Fat Free MW….
I do hate olives though.

The olives have redeemed you in my eyes, Shaz.

Hey, if you’re going to do Miracle Whip, it may as well be fat-free. That’s what I say. Just go for it!
