*Raw egg warning: Caution is suggested in
consuming raw and lightly cooked eggs due to the
slight risk of salmonella or other food-borne illness.
To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only
fresh, properly refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA
eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between
the yolks or whites and the shell. For a lower-
cholesterol mayonnaise, and to avoid using raw
eggs, use cholesterol-free egg substitute for the egg
yolk.
