Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesnβt provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
6. Defend your opinion
This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I think Miracle Whip is a petroleum byproduct + air.
I upvoted this because you are wrong, you have bad taste, and you should be ashamed of yourself.
Upvoted out of sheer disagreement π«‘
When the war comes we a now have a list of dissenting people. They will be eliminated. Thank you brother.
May miracle be constantly on the whip! (Thatβs our battle cry for the uninitiated )
IT AIN'T SHIT 'LESS IT GOT THE TANGY ZIP O' MIRACLE WHIP, bitch
Two more miracles and BOOM! Saint Whip.
Growing up, my mother always got Miracle Whip instead of mayo, so mayo just tastes weird to me.
But I'm not a big fan of either
a sandwich isn't a sandwich without the tangy zip of Miracle Whip!
Really depends on the use case. Mayonnaise had many more culinary uses than just sandwiches, so it's my go to. But it's really hit or miss depending on how it was kept/who manufactured it. Miracle whip is at least consistent.
Yeah, whenever I visit somebody's house and they have miracle whip, they're usually will be brown.
Finally someone says it! Glad we are on Lemmy this comment got me banned from reddit!
Miracle Whip is the goat. Mix it with soy sauce as a chicken marinate. It's so fucking good.
My psycho ex-wife would dip 'Nilla Wafers in that shit.
Sure, but only because it is fireproof, has a higher R value, and can be molded into a serviceable melee weapon, but why would you use eitherΒ to insulate your house?Β
I used to like mw as a kid. It's too sweet for me now
My family wants miracle whip in the Christmas potato salad. Only thing we buy it for every year.
Mmm sugar potatoes
I have a chipped ham and cheese recipe my mom made and the original recipe called for miracle whip. Whenever I make it I use mayo
This must be one of American "food in a can" things that I'm too European to get
Think mayonnaise with extra vinegar
Good mayo already has a ton of vinegar, stuff like Duke's or specialty mayos. What makes miracle whip different is the disgusting sugar.
What an awful opinion
*angrily upvotes*
A commercial fake mayonnaise that you can't do on your own, and that contains corn sugar, flavors, and a lot of other crap? Unpopular opinion indeed.
βAnd Iβm proud to be an American where at least I know Iβm freeβ
Eagle flies by carrying the American flag
Fire works in every direction.
My mother used to pack peanut butter and miracle whip sandwiches for my elementary school lunches. I still canβt stand even the smell now.
My mom grew up on those and would always try to make me try it :/
Are you okay now? I hope you went NC for the trauma she inflicted upon you
Tap for spoiler
/s in case necessary
Wtf
Yeah that should be illegal.
Far too sweet to use wherever mayo is used. I guess it has a place if you are trying your hand at 1950's cooking and making the abominations that were served during that era.
What are you putting it on?
I hate it because it's sweet and mayonnaise really ought not be sweet. There is nothing I am using mayo in where I want to introduce sweetness. But maybe you are using it in something I am not.
Do you like sweet pickles too? Now I am picturing the worst tuna salad possible, with miracle whip and sweet pickle relish. Ack.
You just described my ideal tuna fish sandwich...
I find that it pairs well on a tomato sandwich, but that's the ONLY thing I will put it on.
You monster.
Upvoted.
Kewpie mayo might change your mind. But maybe not. Whatβs your take on salad cream?

Only if you live on a diet that sugar (Glucose, fructose, HFCS, ETC) is a common ingredient.
