Just how bad/good for you is egg mayonaise?

Phate · 3 Feb 2010 at 17:55

I love the stuff, could have it every time I have a sarnie.

But just how bad/good for you is it? makes me wonder

Pretty bad.

Mayonnaise is full of fat.

Depends on how much and how often you eat it.

If you use extra light mayo then not awful, normal mayo it's a heart attack in a horrible, smelly paste.

Make your own mayonnaise, will be a bit healthier and tastier.

You're going to have a hard time passing the blame now son.

Which sort?

Eggs are full of cholesterol. Mayonnaise, which is basically oil (100% fat) and more eggs. Sorry

wozencl · 3 Feb 2010 at 18:06

Is there even a link between dietary cholesterol and blood cholesterol? I thought it had been shown to be non-existant, the saturated fat is a completely matter.

Mayo has around 75% fat, that is more then butter

How is that even possible?

Home made you just make it to how you want, so you could make it less fatty or more fatty depending on what you put in it.
