More mayo, less fat
Take one of the world's favourite dressings, for example – mayonnaise. Far from being packed full of fat, you might be surprised to learn that it can even be eaten as part of a cholesterol-lowering diet because of its unsaturated fatty acids.
Hellman's Light Mayonnaise has just half the calories of Real Mayonnaise, but we're proud to say that you'd never know by tasting it. Nutritionally speaking it's good for you too – Light Mayonnaise is a good source of Vitamin E, which is an antioxidant, and Vitamin K.
A new breakthrough
If that sounds good, then it gets even better. We're now launching a new extra light mayonnaise that takes advantage of cutting-edge food technology to reduce calories.
We've discovered that the structural properties of fat can – partially at least – be taken over by citrus fibres. That means that it needs less fat, and therefore fewer calories, to achieve that classic mayonnaise taste and texture that's adored by consumers the world over.
How it works
In 100g of oil, you get 800 calories. Typically in lower-fat foods, starch is used as it contains just half this amount. But citrus fibre, from orange or lemon peel, contains just 7 calories per 100g.
It's completely natural – a dietary fibre that actually improves the texture of mayonnaise. All this, and it's good for you too!
Naturally delicious
All our mayonnaise is being reformulated so that it contains only the finest pure ingredients. Hellman's Light Mayonnaise, for example, is made with natural, simple ingredients like eggs, oil and vinegar.
Flora extra light - part of your healthy lifestyle
One serving of Flora extra light contains just 0.5g saturated fat copared to butter which containes 5.4g. it's a good source of unsaturated fats and is low in bad saturated fats - plus it tastes great on toast and with sandwiches.
