I wouldn't make a great quantity at home for fear of separation over
time, although I've made small batches to show off a special recipe.
Unless you have some objection to store-bought, it is certainly cheap
enough, thoroughly emulsified, and easily stores for a long time.

It doesn't take 40 minutes to make mayonnaise -- more like 5. But
unless I wanted to use an especially flavorful oil or omit salt
altogether, I'd just buy a big jar.
