Ghee is awesome - but will again solidify. But its awesome, and meant to be eaten as is. As Kids we used to wear it like lip gloss. Girls more than boys.
Pure Olive oil is bitter in mayo. That's why they mix it with canola oil or safflower. I actually don't care, I'd use it and deal with that little bitterness. Just IMHO.
MCT may be tasteless but in any significant quantity it could give you diarrhea. May not, unless you know you can tolerate it. But tasteless isn't neccesarily a good thing. Or is it ?
That leaves avocado oil as the best bet like Jey said. Just enough flavor, and stays liquid in fridge.

Thanks.

Olive oil gets that bitter taste when it is treated roughly; that is, if one uses a blender or food processor to make the mayonnaise. If, like me, one is willing to expend a bit of arm power, and 15 to 20 minutes, mayo is easily made with a whisk, and the olive oil won't get bitter. Mayo was originally made with olive oil, and I quite like it that way, though sometimes I will cut it with some avocado oil if I have it, and a quarter cup of walnut oil adds a nice background flavor.
