I love olive oil and I like mayonnaise, but making mayonnaise with olive oil is a mistake.

Yes, and the fruity taste clashes with the rest.

I made pesto with it once, and I used nice home pressed oil too. Ended up extremely bitter, but luckily the bitterness subsided after a day in the fridge. Still didn't taste amazing though, so I think it still ended up being thrown away anyway.

Strong taste olive oils are double edge swords.

Eh, I've had it and it's fine. It has a strong olive oil flavor, so it works better in Mediterranean dishes.

Given it's Kraft, I would guess it's cheap olive oil (not extra virgin) with weak taste so that may work better.
