Interesting question: I don't want to misinterpret your question, but there are many good lubricants now available over the counter in the drug store which don't contain food products. Then you don't have to be concerned.

Astroglide: Food allergy is usually from ingestion, not topical application. There are much better options you can find at your pharmacy. Leave the mayonnaise for the potato salad.
