What to know about Dr. Oetker FunFoods Egg Mayonnaise Classic
Mostly oil, with 4% egg yolk powder
Dr. Oetker FunFoods Egg Mayonnaise Classic is a 245 g jar of emulsified mayonnaise built on refined soybean oil, water and sugar, with egg powder (yolk) at 4%, milk solids, iodised salt and lemon juice. It is bought as an everyday spread for sandwiches, wraps and as a dip.
The pack prints a 15 g serve, 16 to the jar. One serve gives 92.7 kcal and 91.7 mg sodium. Per 100 g the numbers are 618.1 kcal, 63.4 g fat of which 11.3 g is saturated, 2.4 g protein, 3.4 g added sugar and 611.3 mg sodium. Trans fat is 0 g and no hydrogenated fat is listed.
The name promises egg mayonnaise, and egg is there, but only as 4% yolk powder behind the oil, water and sugar. The ingredient list is short on concerns, with a few preservatives and stabilisers. CleanPlate scores it EB4.
Why Dr. Oetker FunFoods Egg Mayonnaise Classic scores EB4
Nutrition is an E because the jar is mostly oil with 2.4 g protein per 100 g. Ingredients reach a B, since the additives cost few points. Risk is a 4, led by 11.3 g saturated fat and 618 kcal per 100 g.

01 Nutrition density: why E
Nothing in the nutrition panel earns credit. Protein is 2.4 g per 100 g, and the largest contributor is milk solids rather than the egg. No fibre, vitamins or minerals are declared.
The jar is about 63 g fat per 100 g, so the grade rests on a food that is almost all oil with a thin base of carbohydrate and a little protein.
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 simple at the front: refined soybean oil, water, sugar, egg yolk powder, milk solids, salt and lemon juice. Egg powder is the only ingredient with a declared percentage, at 4%.
The additives cost a few ingredient points. TBHQ (319) costs the most, then xanthan gum (415) and pectin (440). The two preservatives (211, 202), the acidity regulators and citric acid cost nothing. There is no hydrogenated fat and no label promise that fails, which keeps the grade at a B.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
High risk
- Added sugar
- 3.4 g
- Sodium
- 611.3 mg
- Saturated fat
- 11.3 g
- Trans fat
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 4
Saturated fat is the biggest driver: 11.3 g per 100 g, more than twice the 5 g high line. Energy at 618.1 kcal per 100 g and sodium at 611.3 mg per 100 g follow close behind.
Added sugar is 3.4 g per 100 g and plays a small part. Trans fat is 0 g. One 15 g serve has 1.7 g saturated fat, 92.7 kcal and 91.7 mg sodium, so the risk is in how much is used.
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 sodium (611.3mg per 100g)
- −Red flag: High saturated fat (11.3g)
- −Red flag: Contains Sodium Benzoate
- −Red flag: Contains TBHQ
Green flags
Nothing stands out in its favour.
Does Dr. Oetker FunFoods Egg Mayonnaise Classic live up to its claims?
The trans fat free claim holds, with 0 g declared and no hydrogenated fat listed. The egg is real but only 4% yolk powder, and the wholesome dip and quality wording is framing.
- Product namePartly true
“Egg Mayonnaise”
Egg is real but small: egg powder (yolk) is 4%, behind refined soybean oil, water and sugar.
- On the packBe careful
“A rich creamy blend of highest quality eggs”
Egg is 4% yolk powder, and the creaminess comes mainly from refined soybean oil at 63.4 g fat per 100 g. The quality of the eggs cannot be checked from the label.
- On the packHolds
“Trans Fat Free”
Trans fat is declared as 0 g per 100 g and no hydrogenated fat is in the list.

“Relish it as a wholesome dip”
It is a rich dip: 618.1 kcal and 11.3 g saturated fat per 100 g, with 92.7 kcal in each 15 g serve.
- On the packBe careful
“No.1 Mayo”
The footnote ties this to a May 2021 value-share survey of urban modern trade in India. It is a sales claim and says nothing about nutrition.
What's in Dr. Oetker FunFoods Egg Mayonnaise Classic?
Refined soybean oil, water and sugar lead the list, with egg yolk powder at 4%. Watch the saturated fat, the salt and the TBHQ antioxidant.
The ingredient list, read for you
Refined soybean oil comes first, then water and sugar, so the jar is mainly oil and water with a little sweetener. Egg powder (yolk) at 4% and milk solids give the egg and dairy part, with iodised salt and lemon juice for taste and tang.
The rest are additives with jobs: acidity regulators (260, 330) for tang and shelf life, emulsifiers and stabilisers (415, 440) to hold the oil and water together, two preservatives (211, 202) and an antioxidant (319) to keep the oil fresh.
