About
Mayonnaise is a thick, creamy condiment that weighs slightly less than water for the same volume.
Mayonnaise has a typical density of about 7.9 ounces per US cup (0.95 grams per milliliter). Because it is an emulsion made largely of vegetable oil, it is less dense than water and takes up more volume per pound than condiments like ketchup or honey. A standard 30-fluid-ounce (887-milliliter) jar holds about 1.86 pounds (843 grams) of the sauce. Its density sits close to other fat-rich kitchen staples like sour cream and vegetable shortening.
