We did the same Hellmans vs Duke Hellmans won no contest

A healthier option than either is avocado mayo to avoid the transfat in mainstream mayo brands.

I was always a Hellman's customer, tried Dukes. Now I can't taste the difference. Duke's seems to be a little creamier, I buy what ever is on sale now or I have a coupon for.

If given packets at a restaurant, the Helmanns is difficult to open, the seam down the middle of the back won't tear. Otherwise I doubt you can tell the difference.

Here are the Hellmann's ingredients from their website:

Soybean oil, water, whole eggs, distilled vinegar, egg yolks, salt, sugar, lemon juice concentrate, calcium disodium edta (used to protect quality), natural flavors.

They both use soybean oil 90% of which is roundup ready. Thus both using gmo soybean oil. This makes the plant resistant to roundup so easier for the farmer to control weeds and increases yield.

This being said there is no protein in oil so no dna material either.

The EDTA is a chelating agent used to remove metals from the water. The metals are a catalyst to oxidation so removing them increase shelf life.

The gmo ingredient is the soybean oil. The seed is modified to make plant resistant to roundup increasing yield. They both use this soybean oil since 90% of the supply comes from this seed.

There is no trans fat in any oil. Trans fat is created in the hydrogenated process.

No such thing as vegan mayonnaise it would be a dressing. There is a standard to call it mayo which is at least 60% oil and egg yolk. Vegan mayo would not have egg yolk so not a mayonnaise.

EDTA is a cancer causing chemical and is added as a preservative. Avoid at all costs.
You can buy Chosen Foods Classic Mayo with avocado oil in a 1 qt bottle at Costco for a good price. Non GMO and Keto friendly.

The only vegan product listed on the Hellmann's website is "GARLIC AIOLI DIP AND SPREAD". They don't call it mayonnaise.
