And frankly none of them taste as good as Hellman's. I have just sort of given up on mayo for the time being.


I wish I could give it up, but I have to confess to being a VERY picky eater, and there are many foods I simply can't/won't eat without mayo or a mayo based sauce or dressing. I had a grated carrot salad with coconut oil and apple cider vinegar yesterday, and I managed to (literally) gag it down, but could never face another one. Even thinking of it makes me nauseous. With mayo (Best Foods/Hellman's), it would have been excellent. Grated carrot salad with mayo and raisins was a staple in my childhood (I picked out the raisins, LOL). I've been trying to "get off" mayo for many years now without any success. Nothing replaces it for me.
