What causes the difference

The portion size is the same, but the ingredients and preparation differ.

Dressing: Sour cream → Mayonnaise 80%
  • The salad is identical — potato, egg, cucumber, dill. The dressing is the only thing that changes.
  • Sour cream is about 20% fat
  • 80% mayonnaise carries several times the calories per spoon, and a creamy potato salad takes a generous coat.
  • Dressing clings to every cube, so one dense spoonful gets multiplied across the whole bowl.
