Unilever bought Sir Kensington in 2017.
The reason so many folks like Kewpie is it has MSG added. Many of them probably wouldn’t be caught dead consuming"evil" MSG. Hah. Also the stuff they sell in the US is now made in the US AFAIK. Personally I’d just take whatever mayonnaise I prefer and add my own MSG. Note that the US version doesn’t use “MSG” it uses yeast extract which essentially is MSG in another form – they can’t say “no MSG” on the label. More here:
And thanks to shrinkrap for linking that old CH thread, which several here, myself included, participated in. A trip down memory lane. The mayonnaise wars will never end.
