Duke's Mayonnaise is a spice made by Mrs. Eugenia Duke at the Duke sandwich shop in Greenville, South Carolina, in 1917. Though the third largest mayonnaise brand in the United States (behind Hellmann and Kraft), its popularity was initially largely confined to the south. It is used in regional favorites such as tomato sandwich, slaw, deviled egg, pimento cheese, and potato salad. Duke's Mayonnaise contains more egg yolks than other mayonnaise products and without added sugar, gives it a sharp flavor.
By 2017, in the hundredth anniversary of the original recipe, Duke mayonnaise becomes available throughout the United States as well as in New Zealand, Australia and the Middle East. In 2017 Sauer announced that it also started sales to Latin America.
C.F. Sauer Company in Richmond, Virginia purchased Duke Products in 1929, and Duke mayonnaise became the company's flagship product.
In 2017, the South Carolina legislature recognizes the centenary of Duke.
