Light mayonnaise is a reduced-fat variation of traditional mayonnaise, made to cater to those seeking a healthier alternative without sacrificing flavor or versatility. It typically consists of ingredients like eggs, vinegar or lemon juice, oil, water, and added thickeners or stabilizers, with reduced amounts of oil to lower calorie and fat content. Originating as a staple in European cuisine, mayonnaise has become a global condiment, enhancing everything from sandwiches to salads and dips. Light mayonnaise offers fewer calories and less fat, making it a better choice for weight-conscious individuals compared to full-fat versions. However, some brands may include additives or higher sodium levels to maintain taste and texture, so checking the label is advisable. While it provides a lighter option, moderation is key to enjoying its benefits without overindulging in processed ingredients.
