Still. Especially in deviled eggs, or on a tomato sandwich (just tomatoes on bread with salt, pepper, and MW). But I might try this (with fake chicken) since the sour cream could make up for the lack of MW... I LOVE Miracle Whip. Still.

The grapes make the sandwich really interesting. That sandwich looks nice and creamy and tasty. The grapes make the sandwich really interesting.

I always feel bad even putting anything on it, though I'd make an exception for this salad! :) A really good bakery white bread is so lovely.

Di-Vine. Chicken salad is one where you can get inspired to do whatever. And I was a miracle whip gal too - until I started to learn my ingredients. Damn that Food Network.

Can't even do light mayo. It's gotta be Kraft or Hellmans. Call me a mayo snob. Here is Atlanta, folks talk about Dukes mayo...ah nope! Not for me. I too love a good chicken salad. I never thought of grapes though. I like to smoke the breasts using a stove-top smoker. I find that it really adds a flavor dimension. Erin:

I also usually throw a few Craisins in my chicken salad so I may have to add a little to you/Ms. Garten's recipe!

I grew up eating real mayo instead of miracle whip. I tasted miracle whip when I was a kid but thought it was weird. But at some point I started really liking it on tomatoes. Just sliced fresh tomato with a dollop of miracle whip. I don't think of it as mayonnaise at all because the taste is not even similar. But as a 'salad dressing,' it's not bad every once in a while. Oh, I also realized I like it on bologna sandwiches made on white bread. Those are also things I also rarely had access to as a child :-) I don't really buy that stuff often but every once in a while I have a craving and I'll buy a loaf of rainbow bread, a package of oscar mayer bologna and a small jar of miracle whip :-) Sounds really good, Erin!
