Tropical Traditions expeller pressed coconut oil works very well in

mayonnaise. I use about half coconut oil and half sunflower or safflower.

If you use all melted coconut oil, the mayo will be very thick when you

make it, but since you have to put it in the refrigerator afterwards, it

may come up to be almost solid. THat's why you need some oil which is

liquid at refrigerator temperatures.

Be aware that Omega 6s are not bad, nor are they all pro-inflammatory.

GLA is an Omega 6 and it's strongly anti-inflammatory. The key here is

BALANCE.

Marilyn, what else do you put in your mayo besides sunflower/coconut oil?

Alyssa,For best information on the topic of oils, you might enjoy reading the book Fats That Heal, Fats That Kill by Udo Erasmus. It's a great read, and it explain just about everything. Great book about learning about health. I think you will like it. Mind you, the first chapter or two are just about purely molecular structure. If that isn't you're thing, don't let it turn you off, just skip them. The rest is a very accessible read.

Best,
