How is homemade? Does it have the rubbery, gooey texture of the stuff in the jar? Does it have the smell? How about the taste? Convince me.

Rubbery? I'd never describe mayonnaise as rubbery. Thick and creamy, yes. I guess probably about the same consistency as yogurt, or perhaps greek yogurt.

The nice part about homemade mayo is you get to control what it tastes like. I think the part about mayo I liked the least was the extreme tartness.
