The Food Standards Agency (FSA) provides guidance on a balanced diet, recommending moderation in the consumption of high-fat and high-salt foods. While specific ingredients like anchovies or mustard are evaluated by bodies such as EFSA for safety, Caesar mayonnaise as a whole is not subject to specific additive evaluations.
