They were talking about peanut butter sandwiches.
I don't know why, I walked in in the middle of it.
They said Dianne Sawyer likes her peanut butter and pickle sandwiches with Miracle Whip.
Dianne had her mouth full, so she couldn't talk.
Sorry, I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.
Miracle whip should not even exist, in my opinion.
It's like mayo with sugar dumped in it.
That little tidbit about Dianne took her down in my book.
Not that I even have a book.
But If I did, she'd be down in it.
Like the last page.
The one I ripped off a bit to put some old gum in.
That's how much I don't like Miracle Whip.
I'll tell you who else likes M.W.
My sister.
Ew.
The same sister that calls mustard, "mouse turd".
Who doesn't like mustard??
That's like saying you don't like America, baseball, and apple pie.
Who doesn't like apple Pie?
Uh, my daughter.
I told my daughters they were never allowed to taste Miracle Whip.
They believed me.
My sister said, "Your girls think they aren't allowed to taste Miracle Whip..."
Look, I'm not trying to be controlling, I'm just trying to save their taste buds.
Preserve them for better things.
The first time I tasted sugar free 7-up, I was in the basement of my Grandma's house (now my house), with my cousin.
We opened her old fridge, and discovered a whole six pack - untouched.
*cue angels singing*
Must have been in one of Grandma's diet periods.
We had no idea what it would taste like, but it was pop - in cans. How could it taste anything else but awesome?
She tasted it first, and made a face.
Then I tasted it.
"It tastes like tires!"
"Yeah! Like tires!"
"It needs sugar!"
"Yeah! Sugar!"
So we poured sugar in it.
We just added good to awful, and it tasted like it.
To this day I have never wanted to drink diet 7-up.
I realized it's probably changed since 1978, but my taste buds were scarred for life.
This is why I want to protect my children from this.
Is that so bad?
If they can go through life avoiding Miracle Whip, I believe they will be better people because of it.
I mean really, look how Diane Sawyer turned out.
She eats peanut butter and pickle sandwiches on live t.v. and gets paid millions.
Is that what we want for our children?
What is it you forbid your children/husband/or friends to eat?
Don't tell me it's fatty foods.
I'll just roll my eyes.

I HATE miracle whip! But my husband and kids like it. I hate onions too and I tell my husband if he eats them he's not allowed to kiss me until he brushes his teeth!
I can completely understand your aversion to Miracle Whip... and completely agree with you on it... but why in heaven's name did you not wig out on the peanut butter and PICKLES part too?
By the way, I don't like mustard either... it's Mayo or Ketchup or nothing.
oh oh oh... cabbage... if I had kids, I wouldn't let them touch that nasty stuff... and most diet sodas.
Diet Barq's is an exception... it's VERY good although I prefer the real stuff.
Not fond of Mayo or M.W. myself. I keep it around because my husband seemingly would die without it and because it helps the tuna or egg salad stick together...its also good when making artichoke dip (mayo, that is).
I have NEVER liked onions. I do not forbid my daughter from eating anything, except maybe an excess of junk food and maybe pigs feet because that's just gross but somehow she has decided onions and pickles are disgusting even though I don't think she's ever tried them. Maybe she'll decide she likes them later on?
Don't hate me - because I don't like mustard! I also hate ketchup. Up until about a year ago I would not eat mayo either. I agree with you on Miracle Whip.
I don't let my kids have diet soda or anything that's fat free. I say if you're going to eat something that is bad for you, you might as well have the real stuff.
That hotdog is awesome!
Thankyouthankyouthankyou....I hate Miracle Whip. Always have and I don't understand people who prefer it. Mysteries of life.
Miracle Whip is gross.
I don't let my kids chew gum...call me mean. And I rarely let them eat Tillamook ice cream. Why? Because they don't know the difference, so if I give them the cheap stuff, there is more Tillamook for me!
My son tried peanut butter and pepperoni the other day and liked it. Some things are just WRONG.
I grew up on Miracle Whip and hubs introduced me to mayo. I've been converted ever since. Monkey Wrench recently discovered Miracle Whip, but he's the only one in the house that eats it.
I was vomiting at PB and Pickles! Ewww to the grossness! To add Miracle Whip only confirms that she has nasty eating habits.
I don't forbid anything but drugs and alcohol. I do limit refined sugar by buying tons of fruits and veggies, but that's about it.
I GAG over Miracle Whip. The miracle is that anyone eats it at all.
And of all the horrible things out there that I forbid my children to eat (at least they won't eat it with me) is anything from a buffet. Think about it...you could be eating somebody's boogers and you'd never know....ICK!
Peanut butter and tomato sandwiches.
My husband's family ate them all the time, and I made him one ONCE, but NEVER AGAIN. Disgusting!
Miracle Whip is disgusting.
The thing I REFUSE to do is to put cottage cheese in a lasagna. Ricotta cheese and cottage cheese are NOT the same thing, folks. One is a good mix in an Italian dish - one is soooooo not.
My husband's family used to drink v8 with fancy meals - like Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. That is a tradition that has died with me. ugh.
Peanut butter and pickle is just not right.
Miracle whip,mayo..both are blech to me. Mustard is MY condiment. I love it,especially with corn dogs. YUMMY!
I can't think of anything I won't let my kids eat. Although I do buy otter pops or inexpensive ice cream for them and Dreyer's ice cream for me. :)
I LOVE Miracle Whip--can we still be friends.
Kyle eats peanut butter and banana sandwiches--cannot understand it AT ALL. Allan loves hominy and potatoes--I can't even stand the smell.
I grew up on Miracle Whip. Like we NEVER had mayo in the house. I didn't even know the difference until I tasted the difference. We are now a mayo family.
We are condiment vegans here. Except my husband.
I am totally going to crochet food for you. Maybe next week after I finish this baby blanket.
Sorry----but I was raised on Miracle Whip----and I can't stand mayo.
So---don't hate me.
I like Miracle Whip too. (raised on it too)
The other night I had another blogger friend over for a bbq. I was late getting home, so she and my kids set up the table...my daughter brought out the MW for the hot dogs. As soon as I walked in the door, my friend pointed to the MW and said, "THIS is gross...and on hot dogs?"
So, you're not alone.
I never buy margarine. I was told it was like poison in a tub, and have been buying butter ever since. What I don't get about Miracle Whip is why it's called salad dressing?
I practically forbid juice and certain dairy products...depending on the kid. Not that I have any, but I've watched quite a few in my day and that's usually what gets banned.
Miracle Whip also grosses me out immensely.
