Darlene Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Is there something that is gained by using the "Best Foods" Mayo, specifically? I've always been a Hellman's girl myself. Link to comment
goatherder Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Hellman's and Best Foods are identical. If you look at the label on Best Foods it says "Known as Hellman's east of the Rockies". Link to comment
LazyBear Posted September 15, 2007 Author Share Posted September 15, 2007 I'm West of the Rockies so that's what the bottle says. Sorry for the confusion. Link to comment

And definitely include the green onions and the water chestnuts. Makes the best spinach dip ever (it's my secret ingredient)! My DH's family demands that I bring it to every family gathering.
