Calorie and Nutritional Information Had this as a substitute to the light mayo and its awful, horrid texture and smells really eggy, not nice!" Anon in a review on Tesco

So when Hellmann's Lighter than Light appeared on the shelves, it went straight in my basket. Even healthier than the yummy Hellman's, what was there not to like? You can't beat a good dollop (well, tablespoon full!) of mayonnaise to accompany a meal. It can be an exciting partner to even the dullest of dishes and is flexible enough to accompany a wide range of foods. Hellman's full-fat mayonnaise is 5.5 syns per full tablespoon (15g) meaning it is quite high in syns if you have a daily allowance of 15. Regular mayonnaise should be avoided on the slimming world plan since it is very high in syns, coming in at around 5 syns a tablespoon, this is because this sauce is made from high saturated fats such as egg yolk and oil which makes it higher in calories and therefore syns. Don't worry though, we have scoured the supermarket shelves for low calorie and low-fat versions so you don't have to do without.Bramwells from Aldi have topped the leaderboard with their very low fat mayonnaise (less than half a gram of fat per tablespoon). It's the only lighter than light version to make it into our top category and, at less than 9 calories in each tablespoon of this mayo, it's the lowest calorie version too. Calorie and Nutritional Information Mix your fromage frais, sweetener and vinegar together than in another bowl the powder and water, combine all mixing well until combined. It is disgusting! It's like a vinegary blancmange. I tried to salvage it by making it into a Marie rose sauce, but nothing can mask the awful flavour and weird texture. I ended up binning the bottle after 4 attempts to make this stuff palatable." Anon in a review on Tesco Calories in Mayonnaise Comparison Unfortunately, since its main ingredient is oil, mayonnaise is very high in calories. Leading brand Hellman's Real Mayonnaise has 109 calories per 15g spoonful. Quite a lot for a dressing when you're trying to balance calories. Lush, had an amazing barbecue made potato salad and other salads, my guests raved on about how much they loved the mayo, will be on my list in the supermarket!" Anon review on Tesco

Why Is Hellman's Full Fat Mayo So High In Syns?

Condiments are a crucial part of a meal but often contain a lot of hidden fat and sugar and due to their liquid/paste form, it can be easy to put too much on our plate without measuring. Plenty, actually. Think of the cheapest brand of mayo, that has no flavour and soaks into the bread and disappears. And that is exactly what we have here. Egg mayo sandwich was just bread, eggs and dryness. I squeezed the mayo onto my sandwich myself. I saw it with my own eyes, so I know it was definitely on there, but I may as well have not bothered. There was no flavour, no texture, no sign of it at all on the sandwich when I unwrapped it at lunch time. It was like a magician had done some kind of magic and made the mayo disappear. Recommend. Excellent quality. Better than the leading brand. Lovely dolloped on Tesco smoked salmon."
