What is McChicken sauce packets? Mayonnaise?

It's a Canadian thing

I'm concerned that it says "Mayonnaise Style Sauce Packet" and thank you for bringing that to my attention!

probably no eggs, which is what holds the oil and water together

Mayonnaise Style Sauce ingredients: Soybean oil, Water, Liquid egg yolk, Vinegar, Sugar, Salt, Mustard seeds, Mustard bran, Xanthan gum, Potassium sorbate, Calcium disodium EDTA.

Miracle Whip ingredients: water, soybean oil, sugar, vinegar, modified cornstarch, egg yolks, salt, mustard, spices, potassium sorbate, calcium disodium EDTA, dried garlic.

Thankfully you don't have to be too concerned. It's for the same reason Miracle Whip doesn't actually call itself mayonnaise, and Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise does. Mustard, garlic, etc., are not mayonnaise ingredients.

mustard is definitely a mayonnaise ingredient

Indeed, you're right. I thought at its most basic it is just egg whites and oil, but googling that specifically says mustard is part of the recipe.

So it's still a mystery why McDonalds doesn't just call it Mayonnaise when the ingredients are pretty much identical to every other mayonnaise out there, including Hellmann's REAL Mayonnaise.

Maybe it's one of those "It's only X if it comes from the X region" type issues. It just makes it sound suspicious for no discernable reason. Like buying a bottle of "Wet 'water' style beverage."

Hey, good for you finding something that you like, but god damn if this doesn't read like ad copy. If you're not getting paid by them, you should be.

You probably already know this, but fast food 5 times a week is basically putting in a request for health problems.

It's a copypasta. There are different versions floating around, but this one's my favorite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnXgbMgfkYg

Damn. The sooner reddit gets its shit together the better.

agreed, you need to go back

Right. My experience in this realm is often the store employee either charging me or acting like I'm stealing from their personal savings account by asking for extra sauce.

e: Wow, I got sniped big time.

As someone who eats like shit all I can think at that list is that’s a lot of McDonald’s

>> when I'm in a rush but want a great meal that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily nutritional needs.

Huh. My experience with McDonald's: never met daily nutritional needs, no longer affordable and struggling to be fast.
