Why is western Mayo so shit compared to Japanese Mayo? It's like someone said "Let's make a condiment that's really fattening and high in calories while making it taste like fucking nothing." Kewpie is basically umami flavor in a fucking tube.

Mayonnaise is not supposed to be umami. Also, I tried kewpie because of you assholes memeing it years ago and it was even more bland than most store bought stuff in the US. No umami, no slight tang, no slight spice, I got almost nothing out of it aside for slight egg flavor. It was like smelling an egg brap from a Jap idol from 7 meters away, upwind. At least make it seem like 2 feet FFS.

Incorrect. There should be a detectable tang from a combination of vinegar and fresh lemon juice, as well as a small bite from cayenne. This is minimum for it as a base sauce. From there tweaks can be made, almost always adding other flavors.

there's definitely a small section of diehard weebs (or just one determined autist) across the boards who makes these threads, because all those threads are identical in wording.
