Vinegar is not the main ingredient in mayonnaise. It’s not even a required ingredient in mayonnaise.

if an unopened plastic jar of mayonnaise can sit on the shelf of a store for weeks, and in your pantry for several days, then why does it need to be put in the fridge as soon as you open it?
why can't it just stay on the shelf or cabinet?
Mayo is made up entirely of ingredients you can store on your counter: eggs, acid, oil, salt, and mustard. Mayo was created in 1756, household refrigerators weren't available until 1913.
Don't buy the refrigeration propaganda!!!

My mom said growing up her mom never kept mayo in the fridge.

The thought of a spoonful of cold mayonnaise makes me nauseous as well... and I like mayo.

It doesn’t. It’s just for legal reasons

Food for thought:
Homemade mayo from eggs, oil, and white vinegar lasts about 4 days before it starts to turn.
Grocery store mayo lasts for months.

The eggs they use for mayo are both pasteurized and have 10% salt. Pretty much nothing pathogenic is gonna grow in it.
It’s 100% because folks stick their dirty spoons in it, then wanna bitch that it started to grow mold.

Mayo has eggs. It goes bad much more quickly than ketchup or mustard at room temp
Ketchup and mustard are both vinegar based. Vinegar is a natural preservative.

It’s liquid fat. And disgusting.

It’s actually true in the case of ketchup.
It’s just super acidic which prevents microbial growth.

It contains eggs. My college roommate left a jar of mayo out for several weeks. It turned orange and stunk. I wound up throwing it away. She had a small refrigerator which was not safe to open unless you had on a gas mask. Her side of the room was knee deep in dirty clothes. Instead of doing laundry she bought more clothes. I used to spray Lysol around the room but her side still stunk. I even offered to clean her side of the room but she didn't want anyone else touching her stuff.

Let’s hope your brain is refrigerated when you croak. I’d be interested in how they explain your thoughts.

Does Hellman's Mayonnaise Have to Be Refrigerated After Opening? Most Hellman's products say to refrigerate after opening, with the exception of their squeeze bottles. If you love your Hellman's, but want to keep it out of the fridge, be sure to buy it in the squeeze bottle for safety.

I leave mine on the counter. Takes me about three months to use a quart. Use clean utensils. At the camp I won’t leave it out because of fluctuating temperatures.
I love my potato salad warm with non refrigerated mayonnaise.

So does a cake. I’ve never understood why cakes can be left out all the time

quote:wrong. bacteria is already present. when you open it you expose it to oxygen. guess what bacteria, like all life forms, need to grow.
Because when you open it you expose it to contamination. Bacteria reproduce at room temp, but most don't reproduce well under refrigeration.
as said, cooler temps inhibit that growth.
