Top end manufacturers of posh mayo recently hopped on the band wagon and started promoting their Vegan Mayonnaise. The publicity says ‘No artificial ingredients with the original Hellmanns taste’. Well pardon me for stating the ‘bleedin’ obvious — it hasn’t got eggs in it.Now remembering the old adage you can’t make an omelette without breaking eggs, I can’t see that a recipe which includes:

Soybean oil, water, sugar, vinegar, salt, contains 2% or less of each of the following: modified food starch (corn, potato), lemon juice concentrate, natural flavour, calcium disodium EDTA (used to protect quality).

can live up to their claim:

VEGAN MAYO WITH THE ORIGINAL HELLMANN’S TASTE

  • Suitable for vegans
  • No artificial colours or flavours
  • Gluten Free
  • Good source of Omega 3

Anyone tried it yet? I’d love to know if it really does have the

ORIGINAL HELLMANN’S TASTE.
