Sir Kensington

Rated at 3 out of 5 green leaves, the Sir Kensington Sriracha Mayonnaise presents itself as a middle-of-the-road option for those seeking cleaner food products. This score reflects both commendable attributes and areas where the product does not meet the highest standards set by the reviewing criteria.

The mayonnaise is crafted with a base of sunflower oil and includes jalapeño peppers, which bring a spicy kick to the condiment. Organic Certified Humane Free Range Egg Yolks are a highlight, signaling an ethical approach to sourcing ingredients. Distilled vinegar and salt are standard components in mayonnaise, while garlic powder rounds out the flavor profile.

However, the product does not carry an organic label, which results in a deduction from its initial score. The use of non-GMO ingredients is a positive aspect, showing a concern for genetically modified organisms’ potential health and environmental impacts. Yet, the inclusion of added sugars, specifically Fair Trade Organic Cane Sugar, leads to further deductions. While the cane sugar is Fair Trade and organic, indicating a commitment to ethical sourcing, the presence of added sugars detracts from the product’s overall healthfulness.

The product also contains citric acid, commonly used as a preservative or to add a sour taste. Despite its widespread use in the food industry, this ingredient contributes to the reduction in score due to its classification as an added sugar.

The Sir Kensington Sriracha Mayonnaise has attributes that some consumers may find appealing, such as the use of non-GMO ingredients and ethical egg sourcing. However, the lack of an organic certification and the presence of added sugars prevent the product from achieving a higher rating. This mayonnaise sits squarely in the middle of the spectrum, offering a cleaner option than many conventional products while still leaving room for improvement in terms of ingredient selection.
