"Maker of ‘Just Mayo’ spread warned by FDA that mayonnaise needs eggs"

"The Food and Drug Administration sent a letter to the maker of the mayonnaise alternative earlier this month, noting that the product’s name and label could be misleading. The FDA notes that mayonnaise must contain eggs, according to its standard of identity — and that Just Mayo does not."
“The term ‘mayo’ has long been used and understood as shorthand or slang for mayonnaise,” the agency said in the letter to Hampton Creek, the maker of Just Mayo. The San Francisco-based company has positioned the spread as a healthier and more environmentally friendly alternative to mayonnaise.
Tetrick (Hampton Creek CEO) said he doesn’t think the company will end up having to change its name.
“We feel good about where we are from a regulatory perspective, from a legal perspective,” Tetrick said.
