Is mayo allowed on induction? Where's 2big? *lol*

[cleochatra]

Nowhere in Chapter 11 does it mention mayonnaise and now I'm wondering if it's not acceptable fare, even though it is high fat... and the ingredients for mayo are acceptable (minus any sugars)...

Thoughts?

2big! Help!

Isn't mayo considered a dressing?

Prepared salad dressings without added sugar and no more than two carbs per tablespoon serving are also fine.

BTW, this questin was posted on the Atkins site:

Where can I find sugar-free mayo?

We usually recommend regular mayonnaise (as long as it's not low-fat, which contains a negligible amount of sugar). If you want to keep your mayo absolutely sugar-free, you can make your own from scratch.

I've never had luck finding sugar free so I use Hellman's. It's not caused any problems for me, but I know everyone is different in how their body might react.

oooohhhhhhhhhhh....

A Dressing.....

It sounds so acceptable in that vein...

I think you're right. I know in the older Atkins books he was Mr Love-Your-Mayo-As-Yourself, so it seemed really uber-weird that he didn't mention the word "mayonnaise" in Chapter 11!

LOL! I wouldn't bet the farm on it but I'm thinking that's the deal. If it's not I've been very bad for a number of weeks :guns

[cleochatra]

If it's not, color me with you on the plane to everlasting burning Atkins **** where all we've got is packaged pork rinds for eternity and flight attendants with bad B.O.

[goin2Bgood]

Bah. Real Atkineers aren't fazed by rancid porkrinds or ripe flight attendents.. we laugh in the face of such things while we breath ketosis breath over everyone :guns

From the Acceptable Food List. In the purist form, mayonnaise is beaten eggs and oil.

ROFL I just used mayo as an example fo an induction food not in the food lists But CLeo we are going to have to send you back to school and IrishIrsih and goin2Bgood too. :nod :nod :nod

Open your DANDRs to chapter 11 page 123 in paperback and read Rule 2 of induction line 4 the second word is mayo and the sentence says eat liberally ........as well as of pure natural fats in the form of butter mayonnaise,......

I know the 3 of you will be participating in the DANDR book reading challenge all the way to the end right

Just cause I am nosey, 2bg do you just have the whole book memorized. My Pastor is memorizing the Bible book by book I can just see you walking around chanting chapter 11..................................

[cleochatra]

Mayonnaise IS MENTIONED in Chapter 11. Just not in the list itself.

I reread the first 13 chapters last night.
