My lovely people, the strong, tired, overworked mums out there, I see you. You're trying to survive the keto diet and wondering how on earth you're supposed to do it without mayonnaise.
When you’re on keto, you need something to make your food feel a little more exciting. We’ve already said goodbye to rice, pasta, bread, pastries, you name it. So, yeah, life on keto can feel a bit dry. Literally.
But I have a tiny solution for you: mayonnaise. Who doesn’t like it? Just like mustard, I add it to everything, meat, vegetables, all of it.
Now, here’s the catch. I’ve done my research on the mayonnaise products out there, and wow — so many are packed with sugar, rapeseed oil, stabilizers, acidity regulators, preservatives, and even modified maize starch. Reading the ingredients alone shoots electricity down my spine.
So, I took it upon myself to find a clean-label mayo.
And I Found It: Doctor Wills Avocado Mayo
Let me be clear, this is not a sponsored post. We’re not working with that brand. I just bought it for my home and tested it like I do with everything else.
Here's what I loved:
1. No sugar
You have no idea how rare that is in this industry. It’s like gold dust.
2. Made with avocado oil
They claim each jar contains oil from eight avocados. Not bad at all.
3. No artificial junk
No fake flavors, no nasties. I checked it twice.
4. It’s actually tasty
Now, I don’t usually care about taste. If it’s healthy, I eat it, full stop.
But this one? Delicious.
The Downside?
It’s expensive. £4 a jar. Regular mayo is half that.
So here’s what I do.
I use it just for my daughter’s sandwiches. Olivia doesn’t like mustard, and I won’t give her ketchup, so mayo it is. One thin layer at a time. But honestly? You’re investing in your body. If that’s not worth £4, what is?
One Last Thing
Don’t forget to take your apple cider vinegar capsules before meals. They help with weight loss and gut health, and can reduce insulin spikes by nearly 30%.
Take care and be kind to yourself.
