Mayo-based dishes were a big thing in my house growing up. My Mom would combine a box of elbow macaroni, a bit of magical Florida celery (the best kind!), some tuna (or chicken, or shrimp, or hard boiled egg) and a few heaping spoonfuls of mayo and we'd have an old Country Crock tub full of goodness. Many a night I'd roll in from a late night movie or closing down a local bar or Philly rock club and park myself at the kitchen table, desperate to get something in my stomach to ward off the bad stuff. 'Salads and Snacks with Miracle Whip Dressing' (Kraft, date unknown) is a great little foldout with recipes for festive occasions or informal "snacking", whatever the hell that means. Crappy black and white photo aside, I'd totally eat those Crabmeat Rolls. Click picture for full size image. – Dan Taylor
