All men is not created equal. Some in fact are women. And some are more equal than others. And that's the truth. And like potato salads, some are good and some are not so good. So don't ever use calorie reduced mayonnaise or miracle whip for a potato salad.
Low starch potatoes [such as red and yukon gold] have a moister, crisper flesh. They hold their shape better in boiling and salad making.
