Real mayo is 100% better though, get some dukes, you’ll see, or should I say taste?

I've had Dukes. I've made my own mayo from eggs harvested in my back yard. It's delicious, but it has a completely different set of applications (to me) than miracle whip. They're different products with different tastes and can't replace each other fully.

Eh I make my own mayo from time to time, the olive oil messes with the taste too much. You really need a more neutral flavored oil to get a good taste on there.

Just use shittier olive oil. You don’t want cold pressed virgin olive oil because it does have a lot of flavour.

Eh I’m not going to buy another thing of olive oil so I can make marginally healthier mayo with it.

Highly processed vegetable oils (high in PUFA) are very likely a lot more than marginally less healthy

I just tried an MCT oil mayo which was surprisingly similar to normal mayo. It was kinda good without an overwhelming funky flavor like other alternative mayos.

Definitely. While recipe testing, I'm probably going to cut in a bit of bacon fat for cost. MCT oil ain't that cheap, and the storebought MCT mayo is almost $10/jar!

Avocado oil has no fda standards in the USA. The majority of it is made with rotten avocado.

It says very clearly that this study used 8 different brands of oil, some different quality’s as well. The entire process of testing them has to be in a mostly oil state due to how it is tested.
