Now I hate white rice. It is possible to change but it takes a willingness, and there has to be a good reason, like health for example. I see no compelling reason to switch away from Hellman's/Best Foods.

But when they are tweaked you notice it. Something like that. I'm willing to admit it is habituation.Jory Kahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01973391055549545876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301242351144025942.post-78986789303469471932021-10-09T12:43:29.526-07:002021-10-09T12:43:29.526-07:00totally agree with David!

There are a few other TJ products that I feel the same way about and have to remind myself to steer clear. One of them is their cream cheese. I realized that I much prefer Philadelphia cream cheese over TJ's varieties. They either taste too salty or too sweet.Jory Kahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01973391055549545876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301242351144025942.post-35618850440425635322021-07-22T09:13:16.374-07:002021-07-22T09:13:16.374-07:00TJ brand tastes like crapTJ brand tastes like crapAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06401729577058669417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301242351144025942.post-7426564499548026192021-07-22T09:12:52.624-07:002021-07-22T09:12:52.624-07:00I hate that mayo, makes everything taste like crap...I hate that mayo, makes everything taste like crapAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06401729577058669417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301242351144025942.post-35320442994135406922017-11-09T09:28:28.723-08:002017-11-09T09:28:28.723-08:00OH MY GOODNESS!

Hellman'...Especially for David, as Promised :)<br /><br />Hellman's Mayonnaise at Giant in the DC Area, week of November 10-16 2017: $2.99<br />per 30-oz jar!<br /><br />This is the first good Holiday sale of the year on Hellman's Mayonnaise! Not quite as fab as it sometimes has been -- and possibly better next week, the actual week before Thanksgiving, 2017? But it would be very unusual for Giant to offer a special deal on Hellman's two weeks in a row, so this is probably as good as it gets until maybe Christmas, when you'll no doubt be in Florida!<br />LynnInBethesdanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301242351144025942.post-33597476195665174482017-09-15T08:44:04.021-07:002017-09-15T08:44:04.021-07:00Bring out the Hellman's, and bring out the bes...Bring out the Hellman's, and bring out the best!<br />I will be looking at our local Giant for sale mayo before the holidays now thanks to your tip.

If you stocked up on six jars (and they keep for ages) each 30 oz. jar costs just $2.17!!! Even if you gave half the jars away, you'd still come out ahead, although I don't think Hellman's is priced as high as $5.29 at any "normal" grocery store.<br />Obviously, I'm with David -- it's Hellman's all the way for me -- nothing else will do.<br />There's been no other mayo in my kitchen since earliest childhood memory -- and I'm 83 this year1 :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301242351144025942.post-35024533837162414662016-05-22T13:26:57.312-07:002016-05-22T13:26:57.312-07:00As a kid I grew up with Hellmanns, in my college y...As a kid I grew up with Hellmanns, in my college years I fell in love with Dukes brand mayo. Then I tried fancy organic mayo. TJ mayo tastes like the fancy mayo. You taste hellmanns its as tasteless as the mass produced honey you see on the shelf. I recommend Dukes or TJ. The TJ does have a different taste, but if you ever made mayo from scratch you really can't base a review off of a crap product you grew up with. No offense to the good people at hellmanns, but trying to feed 7 billion people is easier when ingredients are cheap!
