If you ever feel tempted to get a potato salad tub at Walmart, I would caution against it. It doesn’t taste very good.
Things that don’t taste good usually come in one of three categories. They’re either “bad but guilty pleasure yummy”, “bad but of course good for me” or “inappropriately sweet.”.
This is neither. This is just… bad. I don’t understand. I like potato salad sometimes. It has the right nutrient contents, which is to say that it’s unhealthy but not in an sugary way. It’s not a mishmash or two foods that don’t work together. It just doesn’t taste good.
I don’t understand.
Too much mayonnaise for the amount of potato? I’ve never had Wally World’s potato salad, but I have had packaged varieties from supermarkets and overuse of mayonnaise seems to be a common mistake.

This was actually a mustard potato salad.
