A condiment suitable for individuals with specific dietary restrictions, this product replicates the flavor and texture of traditional mayonnaise while excluding both gluten and dairy. It is formulated using alternative ingredients such as plant-based oils (e.g., avocado, olive, or sunflower), egg substitutes (or is entirely egg-free), and stabilizers. Examples include mayonnaise crafted from aquafaba or utilizing sunflower seed butter as a base.
This type of condiment allows individuals managing celiac disease, gluten sensitivity, lactose intolerance, or dairy allergies to enjoy recipes typically requiring standard mayonnaise. Its availability broadens culinary options and reduces the need for complex recipe modifications. Historically, readily available alternatives were limited, requiring individuals to create their own substitutes; the commercialization of this product provides convenience and wider accessibility.
