Mayonnaise has egg yolk, oil and either lemon juice or mustard in it, regular (french style) dressing doesnt have the egg yolk just the oil and either lemon juice or vinegar plus flavorings. Once mayo is emulsified it stays that way regular dressing seperates.

to some folks, there is no difference. I have used mayo on a sandwich and as a salad dressing. If you are talking about a product called Miracle Whip, it is like mayo, but it has a sweet tang. Some ppl find it disgusting. Mayo is more salty. I prefer mayo.

I don't know. Ask that annoying brat in the "Gourmet Night" episode of "Fawlty Towers". He thinks he's an expert on such things.

Mayonnaise can dress a salad so can be salad dressing. Salad dressing can dress a sandwich or a meal. When we speak of mayonnaise we refer to some combination or emulsion of fat and oil plus often other things but salad dressing need not contain those things.

12-19-2016 Mayonnaise is an emulsion of egg yolk in oil using acid (vinegar or lemon juice) for the emulsifying agent and mustard for flavoring. Salad dressing is anything you put on a salad. BTW if you put cottage cheese in a blender it turns into something that looks just like mayo but has a lot less fat.
