LOL nah it's not mayo that's flavored.
It's basically like mayo, in that it has a similar sort of flavor, but a little different, because it's not mayo.
It's a similar sort of thing and serves the same sort of purpose.
I definitely prefer mayo though.

Nah definitely not the same thing under a different name. This is miracle whip:
Quote:Miracle Whip is made from water, soybean oil, high-fructose corn syrup, vinegar, modified corn starch, eggs, salt, natural flavor, mustard flour, potassium sorbate, paprika, spice, and dried garlic.
And this is salad cream:
Quote:Salad cream is a creamy, pale yellow condiment based on an emulsion of about 25–50 percent oil in water, emulsified by egg yolk and acidulated by spirit vinegar. It may include other ingredients such as sugar, mustard, salt, thickener, spices, flavouring and colouring The first ready-made commercial product was introduced in the United Kingdom in the 1920s, where it is used as a salad dressing and a sandwich spread. Due to the higher cost of ingredients during periods of rationing in the United Kingdom a flavour similar to mayonnaise was achieved in the creation of salad cream.
Apparently they are a little similar though:
Quote:Salad cream was not readily available in the United States until the 21st century (though Miracle Whip provided a similar, if thicker alternative); however, with the large population of British expatriates, especially in the Northeast, it is becoming more common. Major retail supermarket chains sell salad cream as a regular item. Many supermarkets sell national and store brands of salad dressing which resemble salad cream.
