My local supermarkets don't stock it, nor does the Korean supermarket in K-town. Thanks in advance. Lloyd Fri Mar 30 06:57:25 -0700 2007 12880 LloydG 1 2434944 The Chinese supermarkets carry them. If you are near Flushing, HK Supermarket on Main St definitely has it.

Fri Mar 30 10:26:11 -0700 2007 2434928 74051 jsmitty 2 2435757 I find american brand mayonnaise more bland than Japanese mayo. You can add rice vinegar to american mayo (i.e. ones without sugar) and it will taste similar to japanese mayo. Fri Mar 30 10:40:16 -0700 2007 2435706 14322 Muffin 3 2436561 thanks! Fri Mar 30 13:47:29 -0700 2007 2435757 74051 jsmitty 1 2435901 As other hounds have mentioned, you can find them at every Japanese grocery stores as it is pretty much a staple for Japanese. All JasMart and Sunrise Market locations carry them. Most of the bigger Chinese / Korean grocery stores also have them. Tastewise - I think they taste more "eggy", as Japanese often regarded mayo with high egg contents as the better one. It does a bit more "vinegary" too, though not too sour.
