It's just been in the past 10 years or so that I like it in some sandwiches, but it has to be Best Foods or homemade mayo. Hate Miracle Whip BTW - but to each his own  .
BTW, in my mayo feasting days, I'd eat what I could and put the jar back in the garage panty for the next time. It's a wonder I never got food poisoning. My parents must have known what I was doing, but no one ever said anything to me about it. Sort of odd, now that I think about it......

You can no more get food poisoning from Mayo left out than you can eating a jar of pickles or ketchup left out.
Mayonnaise isn't processed in any way and the seal on the jar is just there to protect it from tampering.
