    you can try safflower mayo. it still has 11 grams of fat per Tbs (so you'll have to determine if it "fits" in your eating plan) but it's high in omega 6 efas and vitamin e.

    if the Hollywood brand is available where you shop - it's darn tasty. (in California you can buy it at regular chain grocery stores)

    and exactly what does that mean ?

    if it fits into your daily caloric intake there is no problem with using it...the majority of fats in real mayo are monounsaturated...
    I train differently than most, my beef is with gravity the weights on the bar are just the medium...Thanks to Wall Street your slice of the American Pie has been reduced to a crumb.

    I have been advised that mayo is not really a bad source of fat. But as mentioned above, verify if it fits into your daily cal intake.
