Fair enough.  It sounds like you use MW as a shortcut for
adding a little sugar and vinegar to mayo.

  i do like sweet and sour but to me mayo is quite enough
different that using it and adding sugar and vinegar still
doesn't get the same flavor.  i grew up where MW was the
regular spread used and mayo was hardly ever used until
more recent years.

  i do like them both.

I'd never add mayo to hummus.  Chickpeas, tahini,
olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and salt.  That's it.

  i can eat it that ways too.  when i want a more creamy
hummus is when i use the MW and/or mayo.

If I'm using it as a dip, I'll usually garnish it with
chili flakes or cumin or sumac powder.  If I'm using
it as a sandwich spread, it gets topped with various
veggies like cucumber, scallion, tomato, lettuce, or
radish.

  i don't normally top it with anything because i make
enough for it to be stored in the fridge for a while and
then used for whatever.
