Any great cook will tell you that great taste starts with great ingredients. And we’ve always found that the best ingredients come from a good place.

Richard Hellmann thought so too. Which is why, when he created that very first jar of blue-ribbon mayonnaise in 1913, he used the best ingredients he could get his hands on.

Since 1995, we’ve been committed to sustainable farming and doing right by the people who help us make Hellmann’s. Not just because we think it makes our products better, but also because it’s the right thing to do. 

It’s why we’re committed to using 100% free-run eggs and why we use 100% responsibly sourced Canadian canola oil* in our mayonnaise. 

Because we’re on the side of food.

*Based on the volume of canola oil we purchase for our Hellmann’s products
