I was recently on a vacation in Marseille, and I was really taken by the mayo there. This was often served with frites. Does anyone know a brand I could get in the west coast US that would be similar?

The main difference I noticed was a slight tang to it? Not sure how to describe it better. Hopefully someone has had it. 😅

    The difference is vinegar. Idk why but most American mayos are sweet instead of tart. Acidic mayo is way better imo. They keep trying te sell Hellman’s over here but barely anyone buys them.

      Yeah the sweet stuff isn’t my thing either. Thankfully only a few are like that here. The others aren’t acidic, but they’re more just savory, not sweet. “Best Foods” is a pretty standard American style mayo from my experience, and isn’t sweet.
