What to know about Dr. Oetker FunFoods Burger Mayonnaise

38% tomato, but 42 g fat per 100 g

Dr. Oetker FunFoods Burger Mayonnaise is a 250 g jar of vegetarian mayonnaise-style sauce. It is built from refined soyabean oil, tomatoes (38%), sugar and milk solids, with lemon juice, salt and spices. It is sold for people who want a ketchup-like tang in a creamy sauce on burgers, wraps, sandwiches and fries.

The pack prints a 15 g serve and about 16 serves per jar. One serve has 70 kcal, 6.3 g fat, 1.1 g saturated fat, 1.7 g added sugar and 97 mg sodium. Per 100 g the sauce has 465.7 kcal, 42.1 g fat, 11 g added sugar and 648 mg sodium, and only 1.6 g protein.

The tomato claim is real: 38% is declared on the list. What the name does not tell you is that oil leads the list and sugar comes third. No hydrogenated fat is listed, and trans fat is declared as 0 g. CleanPlate scores it EB4.

Why Dr. Oetker FunFoods Burger Mayonnaise scores EB4

Nutrition is an E: 1.6 g protein per 100 g and nothing else to credit. Ingredients are a B, held back by TBHQ and two starch and gum additives. Risk is a 4, led by 648 mg sodium per 100 g.

01 Nutrition density: why E

Protein is 1.6 g per 100 g and no fibre is declared, so the sauce earns no nutrition credit. The largest protein source is milk solids, at about 1 g in a full 33 g portion, which is too small to count.

No vitamins or minerals are declared on the panel, so nothing else lifts the grade. Energy comes mainly from 42.1 g of fat per 100 g, with 20.1 g of carbohydrate behind it.

Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why B

The list is short and mostly plain: refined soyabean oil, tomatoes (38%), sugar, milk solids, lemon juice, salt and spices. No hydrogenated fat is listed, no sweetener and no dye, and the front promises nothing that the list contradicts, so there is no label-integrity cost.

TBHQ (319), the antioxidant, costs ingredient points, as do the modified starch (1442) and xanthan gum (415). The preservatives 211 and 202 and the acids 260 and 330 cost none.

Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

03 Load risk: why 4

Sodium is the biggest driver: 648 mg per 100 g, 97 mg in a 15 g serve. Saturated fat is next at 7.6 g per 100 g, above the 5 g high line.

Energy at 465.7 kcal per 100 g and 11 g added sugar per 100 g add the rest. Trans fat is 0 g, so it plays no part. The risk grade is a 4.

Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Red flags

  • Red flag: High added sugar (11g per 100g)
  • Red flag: High sodium (648mg per 100g)
  • Red flag: High saturated fat (7.6g)
  • Red flag: Contains Sodium Benzoate

Green flags

Nothing stands out in its favour.

Does Dr. Oetker FunFoods Burger Mayonnaise live up to its claims?

The 38% tomato, vegetarian and trans fat-free claims hold. The No.1 badge is a sales claim, and the retailer page shows a different jar weight from the pack.

  • Retail listing

    “38% Real Tomatoes”

    Holds

    The ingredient list declares tomatoes at 38%, second after refined soyabean oil.

  • Retail listing

    “100% Veg”

    Holds

    The front carries a green veg mark. The list has milk solids but no egg, meat or fish ingredient.

  • Retail listing

    “Trans Fat-Free”

    Holds

    Trans fat is declared as 0 g per 100 g, and no hydrogenated fat is listed.

  • On the pack

    “No.1 Mayo”

    Be careful

    This is a sales-ranking badge for mayonnaise by value, so it says nothing about the nutrition. Per 100 g the sauce has 42.1 g fat and 648 mg sodium.

  • On the pack

    “Net weight 250 g”

    Be careful

    The retailer page shows 238 g, the pack shows 250 g. The per-serve figures here follow the pack.

What's in Dr. Oetker FunFoods Burger Mayonnaise?

Refined soyabean oil leads, then tomatoes at 38%, sugar and milk solids. Watch the sodium, the saturated fat and the TBHQ antioxidant.

The ingredient list, read for you

Refined soyabean oil comes first, so oil is the main ingredient. Tomatoes (38%) give the colour and tang, sugar sweetens, and milk solids add creaminess. Lemon juice, iodised salt and mixed spices flavour it.

Modified starch (1442) and xanthan gum (415) thicken and hold the emulsion. Acetic acid (260) and citric acid (330) adjust acidity, preservatives 211 and 202 extend shelf life, and TBHQ (319) protects the oil. The back also says it contains added flavours, though none is named in the ingredient line.

Ingredients to watch

  • SodiumConcern

    648 mg per 100 g, 97 mg in a 15 g serve. It is the largest part of the risk grade.

  • Saturated fatConcern

    7.6 g per 100 g, above the 5 g high line, from the soyabean oil and milk solids. A 15 g serve has 1.1 g.

  • TBHQ (319)Worth watching

    A synthetic antioxidant that protects the oil. It costs ingredient points, as do the modified starch (1442) and xanthan gum (415).

  • Added sugarWorth watching

    11 g per 100 g, about 1.7 g in a 15 g serve, listed third after oil and tomatoes.

  • TomatoesFine

    A declared 38% of the sauce, and no hydrogenated fat is listed.

What it doesn’t have

  • No vitamins or minerals are declared on the panel.
  • No fibre is declared, despite the 38% tomato.

Who should eat Dr. Oetker FunFoods Burger Mayonnaise?

An occasional flavouring for most adults and children, and rarely for anyone watching blood pressure, since 100 g holds 648 mg sodium.

  • Most adultsOccasionally

    648 mg sodium and 7.6 g saturated fat per 100 g, though a 15 g serve is small.

  • ChildrenOccasionally

    11 g added sugar per 100 g and little protein or fibre.

  • High blood pressureRarely

    97 mg sodium per 15 g serve climbs fast if the sauce is poured on.

  • Weight managementOccasionally

    465.7 kcal per 100 g, mostly fat, with 1.6 g protein.

Recipes with Dr. Oetker FunFoods Burger Mayonnaise

Use it as a thin spread, 15 g at about 70 kcal, on burgers, wraps and sandwiches, rather than as a dip.

Home-made burger

Spread a 15 g layer on the bun: about 70 kcal and 97 mg sodium, so skip extra salty toppings.

Veg wrap

Thin the sauce over a wrap with raw cabbage, carrot and cucumber, which add the fibre the sauce lacks.

Sandwich spread

Use it in place of butter and a second sauce, rather than on top of them, to keep the 42.1 g fat per 100 g in check.

Loaded fries

Drizzle rather than pour, because a 50 g helping brings about 324 mg sodium.
