Looking for Hellmann's extra rich mayonnaise

[SpaghettiWestern]

I believe they call it extra heavy mayonnaise.

i dont use alot of mayo but when i do..... i want the REALLY good stuff.... and imagine this stuff makes

UNBELIEVEABLE deviled eggs. lol

i understand this is a food service item so it only comes in large quanity.

walmart use to sell it but they dont anymore.

does anyone know where i might be able to buy this by the jar.

i know its a very LARGE jar but.... i intend to share it with others i know who are interested.

thanks for any help.

Since you don't use a lot nothing beats homemade mayonaise.

yes... i know i should try making it. maybe i will at some point.

[Heartsurgeon]

just google it.

you can buy it from amazon, and sam's club. probably more places a well.

i guess it depends on how much your willing to pay.

i have googled it..... i know i can get it from amazon..... but they only sell it in the 4 pack. sams club and costco dont have it.... i already checked.

what i need to find is a store that sells the jars individualy.

walmart at one time used to sell it but they dont anymore.

if i cant find it by the jar..... i'll have to find some folks that want to go in on it with me.... and buy the 4 pack.

i just thought i would toss it out here to see if anyone might have seen it for sale somewhere in their travels.

I know Andi talks about Smart and Final - appears they have some Texas stores - so worth a phone call.

You can buy it online from a number of sources. However, it seems to be packed in very large jars and is also sold in 4-packs of very large jars. If you have a cellar or another cool dry place to store it, you don't need to refrigerate commercial mayonnaise.

Yes... i know i can get it online and that it only comes in 4 packs. and yes the jars are large. i was just saying in a previous post that i was thinking that i might have to find some folks that want to go in on it with me if i cant find the jars sold single.

i didnt know that commercial mayo didnt need to be kept cold.... but aside from that..... a 4 pack of THOSE big jars would last me the rest of my life.

so..... not looking to have 4 of them to myself.

i need to find a place that sells them single

MAKE. YOUR. OWN. NOT. THAT. HARD.

If you have one of the stores that sells odd lots of different things (clothing, food, tableware, tools) like a Pic 'n' Save or any other store that sells end stock, you may be able to find it as a one off item. I've bought a lot of condiments from stores like these. They are not past their sell-by date, they are usually lots purchased from failed stores.

I am pretty sure that SW is saying that UNOPENED commercial mayo doesn't need to be refrigerated. If otherwise, it's certainly news to me and refutes the instruction on the label.

[annabelle]

You don't need to refrigerate commercial mayonnaises. That doesn't mean you should store it in a sunny window or on top of a radiator cover, of course. A cool, dry place like a pantry is fine. It seems contrary to conventional wisdom, but it's true. It's pasteurized and pumped full of EDTA.

Me, if I had a giant bottle of mayonnaise on hand, I'd divide it up into quart jars and refrigerate it for later use. But, I have the luxury of having three refrigerators.

SW, you could offer the extra jars for sale on eBay or sell them to friends.

SW, I happened to be at Costco this week-end and saw the extra heavy mayo for sale. Good luck on your search
