I thought I could have mayonnaise and bought some without reading the label. Made tuna salad; 10 minutes after I ate it I got a headache and my ears began to ache and burn (food allergy/intolerance). This was the first time this happened since I'd started Atkins two weeks earlier. Checked the label, and the mayonnaise had sugar in it plus a bunch of other stuff. I though mayonnaise was just oil and egg yolks! I've checked every brand I can find and they all contain sugar. Have any of you found a brand without sugar, and if so, where can I get it?
In any case, I certainly am going to check labels on everything from now on!

Duke's Mayonnaise has no sugar, but I do not know if stores carry it that are not in the Southern US. I live in NC.

Hi,
I miss Dukes mayo! I'm from S.C. Out here in the western U.S. I buy Best Foods. Teens

Thanks guys. I'll look for Duke's. I may check a healthfood store. I really sort-of figured I might have to learn to make it myself, which appeals to me anyway. We get fresh eggs from our own chickens, and I like making things from scratch--then you really know what's in your food! Since I started Atkins almost everything I eat (like maybe 99.5%) is a single ingredient. I mean plain chicken, plain eggs, plain avocado, plain lettuce or peppers. No prepared foods with lists of ingredients to read. Plain meat and vegetables. Food that remembers where it came from I love it!
