About Light mayo

Light mayo is a lower-calorie alternative to traditional mayonnaise, made by reducing the fat content and often replacing some oil with water, modified food starch, or gelatin. It typically includes ingredients like egg yolks, vinegar, lemon juice, and seasonings, with less fat and fewer calories per serving. Originating from the same culinary tradition as regular mayonnaise, light mayo is widely used in sandwiches, salads, dressings, and dips across various cuisines. Health-wise, it offers a lighter option for those watching their calorie or fat intake, making it a popular choice for weight management. However, some brands may contain added sugars, sodium, or artificial additives to enhance flavor and texture, so it’s important to read labels carefully. While light mayo can be part of a balanced diet, moderation is key to reaping its benefits while minimizing potential downsides.
