Duck Mayonnaise is the richer cousin of ordinary Mayonnaise. Dropping a Duck Egg into a Mayonnaise Machine gives a jar of Duck Mayonnaise three hours later. A jar sells for nearly twice as much as chicken Mayonnaise. Ducks lay only every other day, though, so a duck and a chicken earn about the same over time. The jar also opens one of the valley's small secrets: a box in the back room of the Stardrop Saloon trades it for a strange statue. Sam and Caroline are among the few villagers who turn their noses up at it.

Making

Ducks need a Big Coop. Marnie sells them at her ranch once that building stands on the farm. A fed, happy duck leaves a Duck Egg on the Coop floor every second day. Well-loved ducks also drop Duck Feathers now and then. Now and then, a duck takes a swim in one of the farm's ponds.

The flock can grow without buying more birds. A Duck Egg placed in the Coop's Incubator hatches a duckling in under six days, and the Coopmaster profession halves that time. A Duck Egg can also stand in for a chicken egg in any recipe that asks for one. Cooking therefore competes with the machine for the same eggs.

The Mayonnaise Machine treats every Duck Egg the same. Egg quality makes no difference, and the jar always comes out at normal quality. A batch of eggs can therefore go straight into the machines without sorting.

These are the ingredients one batch needs.

Prices

Duck Mayonnaise is worth almost exactly twice a jar of plain Mayonnaise. Because ducks lay half as often as chickens, the daily income per bird ends up close for both. Ducks add their Duck Feathers on top of that.

The Artisan profession adds two fifths to each jar. Compared with the other eggs, Duck Mayonnaise sits above Void Mayonnaise and plain Mayonnaise but far below the Dinosaur jar.

Uses

A purple box sits half hidden among the Casks in the back room of the Stardrop Saloon. Placing a Duck Mayonnaise in it rewards the ??Pinky Lemon?? statue, a piece of secret decor for the farmhouse.

At the Sewing Machine, Duck Mayonnaise in the spool with Cloth in the feed makes the Aquamarine Shirt. It also works as a white dye on any dyeable piece of clothing.

The jar can be eaten too. It restores a little more energy than plain Mayonnaise.

A spare Duck Egg is worth setting aside before the machines get it, because the Animal Bundle in the Pantry accepts one.

Gifts

Most villagers like Duck Mayonnaise, including Abigail, Haley, Leah, Willy and the Wizard. Caroline dislikes it. Jas, Sam, Sebastian and Vincent hate Duck Mayonnaise.
