Hey everyone.. maybe this is a dumb question, but recently I’ve been wondering why people hate Mayo and say it’s so unhealthy!
Like isn’t it just.. eggs, oil, and seasoning?
Those are all things that to their own extents aren’t considered unhealthy when being looked individually, so why is it that when put together to create Mayo, they suddenly create something unhealthy?
I know Mayo is considered a fat, but I didn’t think it was THAT bad? And aren’t there healthy fats as well?

Mayo is some liquid, emulsifiers found in egg yolk, water, and what a lot of people are forgetting, a lot of air.
So even though mayo is close to 100% fat it isn’t as calorific as oil. You can use quite a bit of mayo (especially home made) without thinking you’ve just dumped pure vegetable oil in your sandwich.
