For various medical reasons I eat a low to no fat diet. When I started
it many years ago, a lot of things like no-fat milk tasted pretty awful
but I quickly got used to them and I actually dislike regular milk now.
I use no-fat mayonnaise quite successfully to make things like tartar
sauce, Russian dressing and tuna salad but I never really liked
mayonnaise as a sandwich spread. Combinations of no-fat mayo, yoghurt
and sour cream can be used to make fish sauces and no-fat yoghurt makes
a pretty good Indian Raita.
