I tried the Duke's and Hellman's test.  I prefer Hellman's.  This could be because Hellman's is what I'm used to, or because the jar of Duke's was past its prime.  The Duke's flavor tasted somewhat off.

Ill add my Dukes vs Aldi ( Burman's )  when I open a fresh jar of each  at the same time.

 

that Dukes has to last me a long long long time if i like it , as its up to $ 5.99

 

B is probably 3.49 , just a guess

Dukes confesses twang on their lid so they must put it in there.  I consider it more a warning than a selling point and I'm grateful for the transparency.

It's been years since posting that TJ's was my favorite, and things have changed.  Best Foods has moved to the #1 spot, but not the squeeze bottle version. Just the plain ol' regular version. I've heard that there's a thicker version that a lot of delis and commercial establishments use, but I've not tried it yet. I'm unclear if it's available under the Best Foods lable, but it is under the Hellman's name.

 

Since my earlier posts, I've tried Kewpie, and ther's always a bottle (if you can call it that) in the fridge. My favorite use for it is for Japanese-style egg salad sandwiches, but it's used on other items as well.

That's an interesting distinction. The Hellman's I wrote about above came from a squeeze bottle rather than a jar. I'll have to look at the ingredient lists on both the jar and the bottle. Maybe there's a difference?

Huh. 

In my own kitchen I can assure you there's no difference, because I buy the big jar and use it to refill my squeeze bottle. :)
