I recently thought about the taste of mayonaise after reading a recipe
somewhere for the homemade variety, and also about the mayo that my
grandmother used to make in Alabama back in the 1950's, and how store
bought mayo tasted in those days. I remember the Bama, Blue Plate and
Hellman's/Best Foods brands as having more flavor than today's products.
Perhaps it was that mayonaise was something new to me as a child and now
having gotten used to it over so many years I may just think it was
different back then. Am I losing it in my approaching old age or has
anyone else remembered mayo, or anything else for that matter, as tasting
better long ago. What could account for the change in taste? Recipes?
Preservatives? Flouride? See
