I purchased the Hellmanns Balsamic vinaigrette for the elderly relative,
she likes it, but i do not think it is anything special, if i were going
to use a commercial vinaigrette i would use Garrards, though it is more
expensive than the Hellmanns.

I have found Julia Child's basic French vinaigrette recipe (with my own
additions) to be excellent, though i still occasionally purchase a
bottle of "Marie's" Roquefort salad dressing, just cause im a recovering
blue cheese addict and can not keep blue cheese around the house with
out eating it all up in one go.
