Anybody recommend one, if there are any? Something that actually tastes like salt without the sodium.
Thanks

Start weaning yourself off of the notion that food tastes good.

I use Lawrys seasoned salt.Still some salt in it, but less. I also use Cavender's Greek seasoning, a blend of salt, pepper and other spices.

Cavender's has 241 mg of sodium in a 1/4 tsp serving size.

Not really. Lemon or lime juice can help you cut back on it in some dishes.
If you love someone set them free
If they come back no one else liked them
Set them free again

Substitute spice for salt. Fresh cracked black pepper, paprika, cayenne, and crushed red pepper are your friend.

I like spike, although they make a salt free I prefer the red bottle with salt. It has 160 mg. per 1/4 teaspoon. It's the bomb on garden veggies especially on fresh tomatoes.

True. Ive never had a salt substitute that was even remotely worthy of the name. Some are quite good, but none are even in the same realm as salt.

Once you cut back on salt or quit using it, you’ll hate eating out. EVERYTHING will seem over salted.

I used Morten "No Salt" for years, potassium chloride, our daughter had to tell me if you take Lisinopril for high blood pressure, your kidneys can not shed the potassium. So now I just use little salt.

Some of the Sea salts and especially the black salts have other salts other than sodium chloride and taste saltier than table salt. These mixed with potassium chloride would be almost the same as table salt in use.

Any canned, or boxed foods are loaded with salt, but anyone cook worth his salt knows that.

Potassium Chloride is nasty tasting.

If you're salting to the point of tasting the
salt over the flavor of the dish, you're using
way too much.
Use everything in moderation and there
shouldn't be a problem
My granny was probably the worst one
about it I've ever seen. Everything got
a spoon of sugar, and shake shake shake
shake shake shake of salt before a bite
was ever taken.
