So sad about the terrible taste now

You can deny you have changed the ingredients all day long, but the true test is in the taste and it is NOT the same Hellmann's. I'm 75 and have loved this mayonnaise all my life. First of all when you look at the jar there is a greyish color to the container. It is no longer an ivory color looking at the jar. Just that alone is off-putting. I thought it was me; thought I had let my mayo go bad. NO - the taste is really bad and then I read some comments that others made online, and it confirmed I was correct. This is a real shame. I now have to find another mayonnaise. Not sure I'll find one with the taste as good as your original product, but hopefully it won't taste rancid. It's always sad when a great brand changes the flavor of their product. And this was truly the very best mayo on the market. I ask you: have you actually tasted your product? Because if you had, you would surely agree with the people who have noticed and contacted you about this terrible new taste. I have one 15 oz jar left. Although it was very expensive to purchase, I am throwing the unopened jar away and will no longer be a customer. Goodbye Hellmann's...

Disappointed! :^( Not the same Hellmann's taste!

The taste I used to love for YEARS isn't there anymore! I've noticed in the last year or so, that the taste isn't the same. I just dismissed it as; maybe they made a bad batch or something. But NO! I just opened ANOTHER jar and it's just NOT GOOD! Tastes like it's been sitting in the sun for days. I'm really upset because this was the ONLY mayo I would buy for the last 40+ years.

Best mayonnaise

Perfect in Turkey sandwiches, and tuna roast! Thick and creamy, perfect in everything. This is by far the best and most healthy mayonnaise with clean ingredients you'll find. The plastic container this comes with is sturdy and withstands falls. Best mayonnaise!

Bad change to packaging.

Cant useyour product any more After years and years of it being the only mayo in my kitchen. Your chg to the plastic which makes it look gray now has ruined it for us. I have tried to convince my husband its only the color of the jar but he insists that it doesn't taste the same any more regardless. So he wont eat anything I put it in or on. Sad day for me as will have to-try other brands until I find something w a good flavor.

Something definitely changed... for the worse.

I've been a Hellman's fan for 50 years. For the past year I started using Hellman's packets - for convenience. I'd tuck them into a pocket heading to picnics and parties because I hate Miracle Whip so I'd always have trust Hellman's with me. Then I started noticing a cardboard like after-taste and a funny texture lingering on the palate after swallowing. I thought the packets went bad, though there is no date on them and I threw out the box them came in. So I threw them out. Then I opened a fresh bottle of Hellmans. SAME taste and lingering texture! Bottle was fresh, consistency seemed good, I thought it was me. Two weeks later I started noticing a change in the texture of the remaining mayo - it was less dense, not runny as some suggest, but certainly degrading. I did something I rarely do - discarded the bottle before I reached the bottom - it was just getting weird a month after opening (and I like mine cold, so its always refrigerated). I started Googling around and there are MANY people complaining of the same issues (though more complaining about soupiness which I can't say I've experienced - or not as badly anyway as texture did change). This never happened in the years I've been using the product - going to start seeking alternatives.

Egg Saver Recipe!

I've been using Herman's since I was a child. Best mayo, not salad dressing! For breaed pork chops- 2 thick cut pork chops- mix 2 tbs Helmans with seasoning, sage or fennel seeds, then coat chop (thick cut chop) with mixture, cover with paprika seasoned bread crumbs, brown two or more slices of onion in hot olive oil 1-2 tbs. Then brown chops. Bake at 350 for 40 min. Check with thermometer for doneness. Do Not Cover. I'd love to receive coupons or an incentive!!!

I love this new bottle!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the new Hellmann's squeeze bottle to try from Influenster with the understanding that I would share my expirience with the product. First of all, Hellmann's is my favorite mayo to use. It is my number one choice. I use it on almost all my sandwiches and of course in potato salad. It has such a good taste to it. I have tried the old squeeze bottle and this one is so much better. It squeezes out just the right amount of product and leaves the cap nice and clean. No gloopy mess with this one! And it squeezes out a nice thin stream. With the old one so much would come out it would make a mess of my sandwich.Please keep this bottle Hellmann's!

Why Have You Changed A Perfect Product?

I have always LOVED Hellmann's mayo.....when I moved to the west coast, I lamented that I had to use Best Mayo.....even though it's the same product.....just because of my loyalty to the brand. However, recently, I'm noticing the Hellmann's is no longer the product is used to be. It always had a more solid feel that didn't spread evenly, because it stuck together more, and the flavor popped with freshness. The longer it stayed, even though it was still good, that texture would smooth out and it would lose a little of it's flavor, but that's when you knew it was time for a new jar. Now, a brand new jar is WAY too smooth, and doesn't have the same viscosity. The flavor is dull, and borders on tasting spoiled. The freshness and "pop" is long gone. It no longer brightens the flavor of sandwiches, and mixed with tuna, it just loses all of the qualities that made it special. It's no longer the product that I felt such loyalty to. We've shown you loyalty all these years, yet they seem to have dismissed us all. It's very sad, but typical, and shows that corporations really don't care about its customers.

Only brand I will buy!

Hellmans is the only mayoniase I will buy. It's rich creamy texture, smooth taste is exactly what I need on every sandwich I eat. It's also great for rubbing on poultry when baking, or adhering breading if you want to fry chicken or port chops. Even use it with baking crust products. Keep meat nice and juicy even mix with chopped garlic to rub on roasts. . If I can't find Hellmans, I just don't buy mayonaise. We were due for a snowstorm so I made sure I bought a jar because I knew I was low at home. One of my must have items!

New changes are awful

Whatever was done to change the rescipie has ruined this product. I have eaten Hellman's since I was a kid, the changes have ruined the texture and taste. I used to like to lick the spoon after making tuna salad now I can't do it. If the product doesn't return to it's previous taste and consistency I guess sadly I will have to start trying other brands.
