My grandmother used to make her own mayonnaise and it was terrific but before you go to all that trouble, there is a brand of mayonnaise that I can buy at Walmart; brand is Better Body Foods out of Lindon, Utah. Here's the ingredient list: avocado oil, egg yolk, water, distilled white vinegar, coconut palm sugar (which for some reason contains zero carbs), lemon juice, salt, ground mustard, garlic power, onion powder, and EDTA (preservative). It tastes really good. They also make a the same thing but using lime juice; also good. And if you're near a Wegman's Grocery Store, they sell their own version of the same thing.

Thank you! My husband does 99% of the cooking but is a simple man. Little salt little pepper don’t f$@& it up. The few recipes I make are more complicated and homemade mayo would add another layer of complexity I’m not willing to jump on due to my role as breadwinner in this house. He’s also the Walmart shopper of the two of us and will happily buy whatever I get a solid name/picture of. Gonna have some in my kitchen by next week since he already went yesterday!

Sorry, but coconut palm sugar will zing your blood glucose. Shame on them for making believe it's benign. I'm with Jenna: too easy to make at home with everything you choose and nothing unintended.

They have apparently mislabeled the product! I think I’ll go with Jenna and make my own. Thanks for the information.

And the eggs are cage free. Not pasture eggs, however.
