My mother told me that they are the same product. Hallmann's was on
the east cost they did fine but the PHB's thought that it sounded too
ethnic (Jewish) for sale on the west coast so they changed the name to
avoid that.

Personally I prefer either organic mayo or the McCormick's Mayonasa
(sp?) which is a mexican style mayo with a touch of lime. Goes really
good on chips (french fries).
