I was recently on a vacation in Marseille, and I was really taken by the mayo there. This was often served with frites. Does anyone know a brand I could get in the west coast US that would be similar?

The main difference I noticed was a slight tang to it? Not sure how to describe it better. Hopefully someone has had it. 😅

    Well, then I’m gonna go with it was mayo! Probably with some Dijon as the mustard (an emulsifier) rather than yellow mustard. We’re talkin’ French here, they probably don’t even have yellow mustard, lol.

      Wait, mustard? I always thought mayo was just egg, oil, and vinegar (the egg being the emulsifier). Is there a whole world of mayo I’m missing‽

        Yeah mayo in France almost always has mustard, except for Heinz packets in fast food chains.
