Sorry guys, made a gross error. I confused the 'galloping gourmet', wonderful English fellow who had one of the early, 70's era hit cooking shows on public TV, with the 'frugal gourmet', someone whose TV cooking show similarly garnered great popularity, book deals (i have at least three of them), etc....until he was revealed to be taking advantage of his young, male on-air assistant. That was back in the 90's.
Even greater apologies to the 'galloping gourmet'...

Potassium Chloride is nasty tasting. I have been using it to firm up pickles and don't notice the taste at all other than salty. Maybe what I have is mostly calcium chloride (no percentages listed). Mrs or MS Dash seasoning is a good substitute, it has some of the alternative salts but mostly the seasoning makes up for the lack of salt.

Potassium Chloride is nasty tasting. I can stand it just fine with my caveman palette.

I'd still use it, except for that blood pressure medication issue.

Once you cut back on salt or quit using it, you’ll hate eating out. EVERYTHING will seem over salted. I'm with this guy, Wife and I basically quit using added salt on everything and switched to using it on a few things. Have to use some in the homemade bread. I love a dash on cooked spinach with butter on it. And a tiny bit on my popcorn with olive oil. Other than that, most of our salt comes from whatever packaged foods we might eat, or when we eat restaurant food. Which sometimes is almost intolerably salted. Never can figure out how trained chefs can't figure out how to lightly salt food and then let the customer add what they wish at the table. If they're so good that they know EXACTLY how much salt should go in their dishes, then why is there a salt shaker on every table? Interesting in that the general public cannot remember history and that salt was a luxury item in many cultures, carried by caravan over the desert, or manufactured at the coast and then sold inland for a good price. Now it's everywhere and in everything it seems. Don't forget, drink the blood off your plate when you cut into that rare/medium rare steak, it's got salt in it too. (You do eat your steaks with a bit of blood leaking out, don't you?)
The desert is a true treasure for him who seeks refuge from men and the evil of men. In it is contentment In it is death and all you seek (Quoted from "The Bleeding of the Stone" Ibrahim Al-Koni)

Start weaning yourself off of the notion that food tastes good. LOL. Funny, but true. And sad.

Not really. Lemon or lime juice can help you cut back on it in some dishes. Yes.
