That doesnt taste like cardboard?

I LOVE helmans. Part (ok, most) of the reason I'm fat is that I can LITERALLY eat it off a spoon. I used to regularly dip romain heats in the jar and eat them as a snack (hey...its "salad", lol).

    Best Foods makes one that's 15 cals per serving, I like it.

    There are varieties out now that have Olive oil included. Less calories.

    I tried the Kraft mayo with olive oil and could not stand it, made my tummy feel yucky and the taste just didn't do it. Needless to say, 3/4 of the jar went into the trash. I will never buy it again. It is Hellmans for me too. I will sometimes do miracle whip light, but mostly I do hellman's

    Have you tried substituting guacamole? I'm not saying it'll work for everyone (I'm a big proponent of eating what satisfies YOU) but for me, it tastes good and has a very similar texture to mayo.

    Sorry, I don't like low fat /low cal mayo. Best lower cal mayo? Just Less of a portion of real Hellman's Mayo.

    I say just eat the mayo, but make sure you weigh it out and log what you eat. I eat mayo several times a month, and I have zero issues fitting it into my day. I would rather watch my portions and have the real stuff than find a knock-off low calorie option that doesn't taste as good.

    Several times a month? That's it? I eat at least one serving of mayo a day (weighed). Usually 2. I CAN fit it in, but if there was an acceptable lower cal version, I would prefer that.

    I wont eat the olive oil variety....I really dislike the taste of olive oil. But I love olives. Go figure.

    Try the Hellman's mayo with canola oil. It's 40 cal per tablespoon and it tastes good enough to fool my husband who says he will only eat "real" mayo.

    I've been using the Best Foods with olive oil and I like it fine. Best Foods and Hellman's are the same thing btw, it just depends where you're located (in the U.S.).

    I don't do low fat mayo. Full fat all the way but just less.
