Tip: This recipe works well using alternative canned fruits such as peaches, fruit cocktail, etc., which kids love ~ The addition of mayonnaise was my bother Larry's idea ~ It works!
I grew up eating this as an after school snack, so I guess this has stuck with me over the years. Every time I'm out on our commercial fishing boat this snack automatically comes to mine - love it!
