Default buy or make?

I am reminded of the time I intended to make chicken salad sandwiches
and discovered that I was out of mayo, so I made some. My son went nuts
over the stuff. I have made it many time since then and my wife now
makes it. She has developed an allergy to soy, and soy is now a common
ingredient in mayo. I don't know why they need soy for mayo. The store
bought stuff just doesn't compare with home made. I have discovered that
the hardest part of making mayo (in a FP) is the clean up.
