Save Our Sandwiches | Hellmann's US

Rest In Perfection, BLT. We’ll miss you.

By 2043, mayo, a beloved sandwich ingredient, could become extinct as an everyday affordable product. More frequent climate events like heavy rainfall, drought, and flooding on farms can make it harder to grow, and for businesses to affordably source, ingredients we depend on, like the soybeans used in our mayo¹. Adopting practices like cover cropping can keep the soil intact and support the growth of roots strong enough to stay in the ground².

With heavy hearts we bid farewell to the egg salad sandwich. An eggs-traordinary life that ended too soon.

Star of picnics and on-the-go lunches, this humble sandwich is on the verge of going egg-tinct unless we take egg-streme action. Seriously, more frequent climate events like heavy rainfall, drought, and flooding on farms could cause sandwich ingredients like mayo to cease to affordably exist by 2043.¹

That’s un-eggs-cusable.²

By 2043, mayo, a beloved sandwich ingredient, could become extinct as an everyday affordable product due to more frequent climate events like heavy rainfall, drought, and flooding on farms.¹ This means the Italian sub could soon disappear, leaving behind a black void where our mayo used to meet gabagool.

But Hellmann’s is on a mission to save this beloved sandwich. And THAT’s amore.²

More frequent climate events like heavy rainfall, drought, and flooding on farms could cause sandwich ingredients like mayo to cease to affordably exist by 2043¹. A colossal loss, our days drizzling mayo on this deliciously layered classic could become history.

Hellmann’s is committed to a future with sandwiches.

(Figuring out what to eat for lunch is hard enough already.)

We’re investing $30 million to help farmers in the US and Canada switch to regenerative agriculture, so we can keep making the mayo that brings sandwiches together.

Over the next five years, we’re collaborating with over 1,000 soybean farmers to save our sandwiches and ensure a tastier future for all.
