Hello All,
Due to foot surgery on 7/27, I am NOT able to do my own grocery shopping. My husband bought this product instead of the Lite mayo I usually get. I have tried using it, but I think it is causing me a LOT of grief!
Today right after lunch I had two IBS attacks. I made it to the bathroom within seconds of the second one, thank God!
I told him today to please purchase the lite or fat free versions from NOW on!!
Below is the link and you can click on nutritional info.
I should KNOW better by now, but I stupidly thought I could HANDLE this!

Originally diagnosed with IBS-C in Spring, 2008. During spring to fall of 2008, had at least 10 acupuncture treatments and Chinese herbs. IBS went into remission. IBS returned in late July 2013 after taking 2 oral contrasts for a CT scan for cancer follow up. Had more acupuncture with different practitioner in summer 2014, but received little benefit.

Tofu Mayo
This is a very low-fat substitute for mayonnaise.
1 package Mori Nu lite silken firm tofu (Turn opened box upside down with fingers covering/pushing up to drain)
2 teaspoons distilled white vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon mustard
1 teaspoon granulated sugar or 1/16 teaspoon only of "pure" stevia (no fillers)
In a blender or (easier clean-up) with a stick blender: Combine tofu, vinegar, salt, mustard and sweetener. Blend until smooth. Keep refrigerated.
Makes 10 servings.

That tofu mayo is really good for being tofu:). I could not find a fat-free mayo that was free of the HFCS.
I was really hoping the CDs would help better too for you..They mostly softened the edges on the daily problems caused by the ibs by helping me relax, but didn't resolve the motility problem which I am taking the Elavil 25mg for;At the low dose it didn't cause any constipation at all or any weight gain. At 25mg I split it 1/2 at bedtime and 1/2 in morning which slows motility better. The main problem is the hormones fluctuating bothering ibs-d. Progesterone increase didn't help, but think I'll be done with the peri-menopause soon hopefully
