Mayonnaise...

I'm really not a mayo person, but when it comes to tuna sandwiches, it has to be made with regular mayo. The reduced fat mayo's are just disgusting! :sick:

BUT

My boyfriend recently bought Hellmann's Mayonnaise Dressing with Extra Virgin Olive Oil. It tasted just like regular mayo and it has 50 cals and 5 grams of fat. Reg mayo has 100 cals and 9 grams of fat. Now I can go back to eating a tuna sandwich for lunch once or twice a week! :smile:

I thought I would just share this with you guys in case you hate those reduced fat mayo's and miss having your sandwich with mayo. Here's a link for the nutritional information.

    HEB makes a fuly cooked bacon that I eat every day...3.5 slices are 80 calores and is listed in the food diary....if you don't have HEB, check out the other fully cooked bacons - they are not as high in calories....surprisingly, neither is regular bacon. Enjoy

    righto...I dont understand why bacon gets such a bad rap....fat...sure...but man it is so good and smells so good...and it really isnt that bad....I love bacon and will not give it up

    Maybe I will treat myself to a BLT with turkey this weekend, since I have 2 packs of frozen bacon just sitting in my freezer. Two weeks ago I treated myself to Panera's Bacon Turkey Bravo but that added up to almost 900 calories. :grumble: Good thing I ate extremely light earlier that day, even though I still went over my 1200 calorie goal by a little over 100 calories. :angry:

    I'll have to look for the other kind of bacon that you guys mentioned.
