If you love mayonnaise but try to avoid it, thinking it’s on the list of forbidden foods, you’ll be happy to know that it’s actually not nearly as bad as its reputation may seem.
With plant-based oil, eggs and vinegar as the primary ingredients of most types of regular mayo, it’s actually low in saturated fat and sodium. Regular mayo has just 1 to 2 grams per tablespoon — about the same of what you get in a tablespoon of olive oil. And with just 5 to 10 milligrams of cholesterol per serving, it’s far below the recommended upper limit of 200 to 300 milligrams of cholesterol.

But remember not to lay on your love for mayonnaise too thick! It packs 100 calories into every tablespoon, so if you’re watching your waistline, just use a thin spread of the real thing, or try one of our “Love it” options suggested below in a recent “Love It, Like It, Hate It” article.
What’s the difference in types of mayo?
- Most light mayo is made with oil, eggs and vinegar (like regular mayo) as well as corn starch or modified food starch
- Most “olive oil” mayo has soybean/canola oil, which is often listed before olive oil on the label
- Vegan mayo uses binders like xanthan gum and soy protein isolate in place of eggs
