Bloating from Mayonnaise?

[OakLeaf]

I like mayonnaise (don't understand what's "nasty" about it ) but I don't use a lot of dressings of any kind, so I rarely make it. Unlike a vinaigrette, the egg means there's a minimum quantity you have to make, and it's WAY more than I'd use before it would spoil.

I'm not much of a fan of the storebought processed junk, but that goes for most foods.

I like it sometimes too. We were all trying to help the OP find a substitute though.

Yes I realize that, but everyone was saying that they hate it. I felt like someone needed to defend it.

I googled "egg salad recipe no mayonaise" and found a few, including these:

Yes, I like real mayo too, in modest amount. What's so 'nasty' or 'disgusting' about eggs and vegetable oil and pepper?

Is the original poster allergic to vegetable oil or eggs?
I admit I'm still confused about exactly what 'bloating like a cow' means.

It's slimy.

It's slimy.

I completely understand this point of view. Lord knows I have plenty of issues with the texture of certain foods.

Having a bad reaction to food might not be an allergy -- for example I think high-fat foods can cause symptoms of gall stones to flare up.

OP, is it possible the dairy is coming from something else you're eating with the mayo, like bread?
