I used to buy fat-free mayonnaise all the time. Both Kraft and Best Foods (Hellman's in the East) made varieties I used. But in the past few months, I haven't seen it at any of the supermarkets I visit. Out here, we have Ralphs (Kroeger), Vons (Safeway), and Albertsons (SuperValu). I've also looked at a couple of Super Walmarts and big Targets. We have some big ethnics market chains that don't carry it, and neither does Trader Joe's, which I didn't expect to carry it.

Anyone see it anywhere? I do know a place where I can buy individual packets for the fat-free mayo, like you'd get at a deli, but those are hard to cook with.

Did you try looking online? I know they have the light one here in WA, but I haven't looked for the fat free one? I just used regular but in moderation...usually only a thin film of it on my "sandwiches" or a small spoonful to make a dressing

Okay, you made me curious. Go to www.amazon.com and search fat free mayo. They carry more than one. And I saw something there that has roused my curiosity even further. Have you ever heard of Walden Farms products? I buy a chocolate sauce they make that is CALORIE FREE. I use it to dip apple slices in when I feel the need for a treat (that just happens to be absolutely guilt-free). Well, they make a fat free, sugar free, CALORIE FREE mayonnaise. If anybody gets this and tries it, please pass on a "review". I'm curious.

I am so picky with my Mayo...I will only eat Hellsman/Best Foods! lol I hate hate hate Kraft and Miracle WHip! lol

Kraft Mayo with Olive oil.... It has a green lid. Has half the fat of regular mayo so it has 4 grams. I love it, I don't abuse it. but it really gives a nice flavor beats the low fat variety, and I believe it has the same amount of fat as the lowfat version. I made deviled eggs for 4th of july bbq yesterday and everyone was raving about the great flavor, they didn't know what I did that made it so special.

Best Foods/Hellmans makes one with Canola too...

Thanks for all your suggestions. I did see where I could get Krafts online through its Web site, but it's over $6 a jar, plus shipping. I have not had the Waldens mayo. It's available at a store I go to. I wanted something that the whole family could use.

But I did a little more looking this weekend and found that Walmart has Best Foods (Hellman's) Low Fat mayo. It has 1g of fat and 15 calories per tablespoon. I believe this is what the Kraft fat-free was, although it had no fat. It also makes a light mayo that has about half the calories, but it's still pretty hefty, calorie-wise. I can live with 1g of fat. Haven't tasted it yet. I intend to use it in tuna or chicken salad.

Thanks again for all your suggestions.

HappyHomeCC. I too LOVE the mayo with the olive oil. I hate artificial anything, and going fat free, sugar free isn't an option for me. The olive oil solved this problem for me. I have to keep a little bit of healthy fats in my diet or my skin looks just horrid! Olive oil actually helps reduce cholesterol, so I'm fine with it. I am also concerned about maximizing my nutrition. Many vitamins (A, D, E, and K) are fat soluable, and are only absorbed in the presence of fats. So I feel a little is doing me a favor, as long as it's the right kind, and used in moderation. I won't touch margarine!!!!

I agree with you aubrie. I bought the Isopure natural vs Zero Carb version with splenda etc. I am not hip on the chemical sugars etc. I use butter too. I try to use more chicken broth to cook with for the moisture that butter provides. Or I use olive oil. To me the fat free stuff is not palatable... did you see the butter mixed with olive oil to make it spreadable? I haven't tried it yet. I want to get in the land of Moderation and I would like to cut out the majority of the red meat... heck meat in general if I could but the family will not go for it ;o) I will use the sugar free products during my post op diet thought until I heal and can eat. Have you tried Stevia? I bought a liquid with Valencia orange flavor. 8 Drops in a Water bottle gives it a nice flavor. I have been having that so that I do not feel the need to convert to crystal light. there are a lot of flavors to choose from and you can add them to coffee or tea, or just use a plain one as a sweetner.
