Hellmann's Canola Mayo

I started using the Hellmann's Canola Mayo because of my soy intolerance. Friday I was at the grocery store and looking for my regular canola mayo. I always buy Hellmann's Canola and it looked different. Just when I find something good, they have to change it! The ingredients list has tripled in size and now contains soy. The old label says--HELLMANN'S CANOLA REAL MAYONNAISE--MADE WITH THE GOODNESS OF CANOLA OIL--the new label says: HELLMANN'S CANOLA--CHOLESTEROL FREE MAYONNAISE.

It seems soy's the convenient thing to put in pretty much everything. <_<

If you don't mind spending the money Spectrum put's out a canola mayo. I really wanted to by the olive oil one but it has soy in it as well. I've pretty much gone to not using any mayo anymore.

Yep, and the new stuff has soy. I was so very annoyed when I saw this. I bought lots of the old stuff to stock up, but I'm only left with two now. I guess it's back to Spectrum's canola mayo, which is more expensive and harder to find, of course.

Why must they mess with a good thing? The new stuff also has more ingredients, which seems less natural to me, too. Ugh!

Ad me to the P.O.'ed list! I emailed the company to ask what gives - isn't the whole point of a canola mayo to have something available for soy-allergic customers??? They just wrote back with the usual drivel about how the new formula tested well with their test subjects, and they're sorry that it no longer meets my needs. :angry:

I got a jar of the Spectrum canola mayo; it's okay, but I don't think it tastes as good as the old Hellman's. :(

:( That really stinks!!!! I love the Hellman's Canola!

MIL just started buying it b/c it was soy free as well.

OK, I didn't even know that Hellman's had a canola Mayo, but I am ticked off too. Just because I am cannot have soy and it is in EVERYTHING! AAAUUUUGGGGHHHH.

I have always told people I have more trouble avoiding soy than I do gluten.

FYI - The reason many companies lists "May contain soy, cottonseed and/or canola oil" (you can often see it on potato chip bags) is because the companies buy in bulk and purchase whichever is cheaper at the date of purchase.

I am not saying that the change isn't "because of consumer-tested taste," but that it probably has a little bit to do with fry oil costs.

If you are sensitive, its a good thing to double check french fry oil too.

PS - If you are interested, making homemade may is super easy and 5x more tasty!

I don't know if it's only in Canada, but Hellmann's has come out with a new olive oil variety. It just has olive and canola oil for the oils.

Vegenaise is good but I believe it has soy in it.

we still have the ones with no soy here at the store. I had read this post earlier this week and when i went shopping i seen that we had the stuff with no soy in it, i was so happy. I have not used it yet tho, but im wondering if i should go and buy some more before the new stuff hits here

I was so disappointed they added soy. Finally a product we could have, at the very same price as everyone else, and now they ruined it. I think we should all email them and call them.

Hi, mayo is really very easy to make yourself in a blender or food processor. It takes oil, vinegar or lemon juice or a combo, eggs, and you can add salt, sugar and mustard for flavor to taste. I do this with sunflower oil, apple cider vinegar, and then don't have to worry about anyone else adding stuff I don't want.

I JUST GET SO MAD..................SOY'S IN EVERYTHING.

GOING DOWN TO CK MINE.

      What you describe is seronegative villous atrophy (negative antibody tests but positive biopsy). It is uncommon in coeliac disease, and there are other causes, but the most common cause is coeliac disease. I would pursue this with your healthcare provider if possible. Based on clinical history, test results and possible genetic testing for susceptibility to coeliac disease it should be possible to give a diagnosis. There is a bit more here: Seronegative coeliac disease

      If you are still eating gluten you could get a celiac disease blood panel done, but I agree with @trents and the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease would be your endoscopy results. Is it possible they did do a celiac disease panel before your biopsy? This would be the normal chain of events. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Actually, it would be more correct to say that the genetic potential to develop celiac disease is passed down from parents to children. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease are at a considerably higher risk of developing active celiac disease than those of parents who have the genes but don't develop the disease. Some recent, larger studies put the risk at near 50% for the first degree relatives of those who have active celiac disease.

      Hello everyone! Been a while since I posted. The past few moths have been the best by for recovery for myself. I have been the least bloated I have ever been, my constant throat clearing is almost gone, I have stopped almost all medication I was prevously taking (was taking vyvanse for adhd, pristiq for anxiety,fomotadine/blexten for histamine blockers and singulair). Only thing I take now is Tecta. I also no longer get any rashes after eating. Things are going very well. Most success came actually once I upped my B12 daily dose to 5,000 mcg. I do have one thing I am un able to figure out and want to see if anyone else has this issue or has experience working around it. Ever since I was born I have always had a issue getting fruits and veggies down. No matter how hard I tried, it would always result in gagging or throwing up. Always just thought I was a picky eater. Now that my stomach and system has healed enough that I can feel when something is off almost istantly, I notice that after eating most fruits (sometimes I am ok with bananas) and veggies, my stomach instantly starts burning and my heart starts to pound and I get really anxious as if my body doesnt know what to do with what just enetered it. So I am thinking now that this is what probably was going on when I was born and my body started rejecting it before which caused this weird sensory issue with it causing the gagging. Hoping someone has some exprience with this as well because I would love to be able to enjoy a nice fruit smoothie once in a while haha. Thanks everyone!

      i know i've been rather cynical and sad about being fully diagnosed in june 2025, but my boyfriend has been consistently showing me the wonderful world that is gluten free cooking and baking. in the past couple of days he's made me a gluten free rice paper-wrapped spanakopita "pastry", plus a wonderful mac and cheese bechamel-ish sauce with gluten free pasta (san remo brand if you're in australia/if you can get your hands on it wherever you are).  those meals are notably gluten free, but mainly he's been making me easy gluten free meals - chili mince with white rice and sour cream, chicken soup with homemade stock from the chicken remains, and roast chickens with rice flour gravy and roast veggies. i'm a bit too thankful and grateful lol. how lucky could i possibly be? and, of course, for those who don't have someone to cook for them, it's quite easy to learn to cook for yourself. i've been making a lot of meals for us too. honestly, cooking is pretty darn fun! knowing basic knife skills and sanitary practices are all you really need. experimenting with spices will help you get on track to creating some really flavourful and yummy dishes. coeliac is a pain, but you can use it to your advantage. healthier eating and having fun in the kitchen are major upsides. much luck to all of you! let's be healthy!
