Has anyone tried this product? I think it's a Kraft mayo, with a greenish label. I'm thinking this may taste better than 'lite' mayo, have a better texture, and actually be healthier...

Anyone, anyone?:)

We did a taste test between olive oil mayo and smart balance (I stopped using "real" mayo awhile back in an effort to save calories). I am VERY picky about taste and texture of mayo (cant stand hte "light" stuff).

I dont care for the kraft one, but we did like helmans and liked it a smidge more than the smart balance. I complained to the store that the olive oil mayo only comes in a large container - a lot of money to pay if you dont like it. They offered to take it back if we didnt like it :)

After checking the ingredients, nope.
I'd rather have the simplicity of hellmans.

I don't care for the taste of light at all and decided to give it a try.

It was OK on a sandwich (but I also sprinkle Penzey's Sandwich Sprinkle on my sandwiches) but I found it to give a weird taste to pasta salads and dips. I tossed the container and went back to regular ole Hellman's.

Don't really care for it either. I used it in cole slaw thinking the cabbage would help hide the different taste. I don't use mayo that often. When I do it's either Hellmans', Duke's, or Blue Plate.

Miso Mayo (http://www.misomayo.com/) is good on soy and beef burgers.

We like it! I used to buy light mayo but have bought this the last couple times.

I guess we'll find out. I like the idea of asking Kroger to take it back if we don't like it. I'm a VERY regular customer, there, and I think they would take it back...

Thanks for the feedback, everyone!:)

I will try it this week because Publix has it buy one get one free.

If I don't like it, I will take it to the Church kitchen and leave it!

I don't use anything but Kraft mayonnaise unless I make my own.
