Oh! Cheerwine! Not something you find in the North.

Yeah.... I believe it is a southern thang.

When I lived in Texas, no cheerwine, no Duke's mayonaise. I had Duke's shipped to me and when I would visit back here at home, some Cheerwine always went back with me. They do sell Duke's in Texas now, at least some stores do.

Dukes mayo? I have never seen that here.

I don't know where all it is distributed now, but for many years it has been a southern thing, I guess I would have said an east coast thing, but I never really looked at their distribution area, just knew it was nowhere in Texas when I was there. It was the only mayo my Grandmother used and my mother and pretty much any of our family that I knew of. Although I know it is all what you get use too, things like potato salad, chicken salad, sandwiches and the such, just don't taste the same if some other mayo or dressing is used and for me, if I take the time to make any of those things.... or deviled eggs, I'm certainly wanting them to taste just like they always did. 😃 I am guessing that anyone that was raised with another kind may also feel the same about the taste of things it is used in.

I found some that I could order and it is supposed to be here Monday. I am looking forward to trying it. 😛
