Food you make or eat "wrong"

Is Miracle Whip even fit for human consumption?

It's "salad dressing" which is mistaken for, and used interchangeably as, mayonnaise, probably because it's also white. It's a pretty useless condiment, IMO.

I remember as a kid my mom once made potato salad with Miracle Whip. I didn't know it, but it tasted funny and I mentioned that. She tried it, and threw the rest out. As a child of the depression, it took a lot of her to throw food out. But that was in the 1960s when Miracle Whip was cheaper than mayo. Now, it is almost twice as expensive as real mayo.

If it's any consolation, Miracle Whip isn't really food.
