    No, but dried cranberries totally do. And folks, use a vinaigrette for potato salad and not mayo, I'm begging you. 1/3 Red wine vinegar, 2/3 olive oil for liquid, add Dijon mustard, dill, summer savory, oregano, salt and pepper, stir that mix up. Your salad should be large diced cooled boiled taters, red onion, capers, shredded carrot and fine chopped red cabbage. Another fantastic one is curry potato salad, which is a yellow curry, potatoes, green onion and chick peas

      okay that sounds nice and im sure its very good in its own right but thats not a mayo substitute you just gave the recipe for an entirely different style of potato salad

      manhattan clam chowder and new england clam chowder are both great but one isnt a substitute for the other they are different soups

        Use vegan mayo instead and also use sweet potatoes if you're using mayo. Thst shit rocks with shallots, nuts and cranberries. When you substitute mayo it becomes a different style of potato salad. BTW to make vegan mayo save the aquafaba from bean cans and blitz it with oil, salt and pepper. I also add lemon juice, tarragon and garlic scapes.
