Resolved: Miracle Whip is neither miraculous nor whipped.

Overheard in a grocery store a few days ago:

woman 1:Get some Miracle Whip down there.
woman 2 reaches down to get a jar.
woman 1: No, not that fat-free crap! Get the good stuff.

I just had to laugh.

By the way, Miracle Whip started life as a cheaper substitute for Mayonaise during the depression. You’d think we could switch back to the real stuff now that the unemployment rate is no longer 30%.
