Hellmann's:

Rapeseed oil (78%), free range pasteurised EGG and EGG yolk (8,9%), water, spirit vinegar, sugar, salt, lemon juice concentrate, flavouring, antioxidant (calcium disodium EDTA), paprika extract.

Zaanse:

Rape seed oil (80%), natural vinegar, EGG (6%), water, sugar, salt, MUSTERD (water, MUSTERD seeds, vinegar, salt, sugar), preservative (potassium sorbate), flavours (SOY protein and CELERY), dye (beta carotene), antioxidant (E385).

Sounds like I'd prefer Zaanse's flavor profile better since they've got celery and mustard in there. but I don't see how Hellmann's is somehow not mayonnaise when comparing the ingredients.

Zaanse is the best Dutch mayo because it doesn't have that much sugar in it, Calvé for instance has more than double the amount of grams per 100ml.

I see Hellmann's is about the same sugar wise as Zaanse.

As a Belgian I grew up with less sweet mayo, like max half a gram of sugar per 100 grams of mayo. So often mayo from other countries taste too sweet.

Sugar? In a mayonnaise? Really?

  • Eggs
  • Oil
  • Salt

That's it!

Egg contains sugar, very little hence saying added sugar is noticeable in taste.

Sugar in a recipe means adding sugar that is not in any of the other ingredients
