Lite mayonnaise is a creamy condiment that offers a lower-calorie alternative to traditional mayonnaise. Typically made with egg yolks, vinegar, oil, and emulsifiers, this version uses reduced-fat oil or substitutes like water and modified starch to cut down on fat content. Lite mayonnaise originated as part of modern adaptations to classic condiments, aligning with health-conscious approaches in Western cuisines. Often used as a spread for sandwiches, a base for dressings, or a dip, it maintains much of the rich texture and tangy flavor of regular mayonnaise while being less dense in calories and fat. However, while it is lighter, it may contain added stabilizers and sugars to preserve taste and consistency. It's a healthier option for those monitoring their fat intake, but it’s important to check ingredient labels for hidden additives. In moderation, light mayonnaise can be a valuable addition to balanced meals without sacrificing flavor.
