I've only ever seen this used on fish fingers sandwiches.

Knock-off mayonnaise because the British don't want to add another superior French word to their bland lexicon of a mockery of a language

It really does not taste like mayo. Yes, yes, I know, England bad.

I'd much rather eat a spoonful of miracle whip instead

How did you actually predict my next comment? Anyway, you can make salad cream yourself. It's basically mayonnaise with mustard in it and a tad more vinegar. If you like you can make it with a french accent seeing as you are so keen on them.

Same ingredients as most "salad" recipes, like egg, pasta, or potato salad. Mayo, mustard, and vinegar just taste great together.

Oh damn that actually sounds pretty good!

[-] Flyberius@hexbear.net 1 points 2 months ago

It's not terrible. Certainly not a mayo replacement. Just good on certain things

Please spare me, I'll enjoy my delicious Delouis on my frites

It's salad cream, not chip cream, you knob

[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 1 points 2 months ago

It's bloody mayonnaise you plonk yer fries in you daft muppet

Comrades be nice 😤

Miracle whip is just the Kraft brand salad cream

[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 1 points 2 months ago

Still the ever so slightly superior Yankee product in terms of knock-off mayonnaise

[-] vext01@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 2 months ago

We have mayo as well.

[-] HermitBee@feddit.uk 2 points 2 months ago

True, we never use the word mayonnaise, and mayonnaise is not vastly more popular than salad cream.

Oh wait.
