Ah, yes, restaurant food is terrible! Salt and butter–easy ways to make anything delicious. Packaged foods are the worst, but I do love Amy’s (the broccoli and cheese pot pie is amazing) so I too am torn.

Well written article! I agree that sea salt topped chocolate is amazing! It’s true, salt is hidden in everything. When I worked in a restaurant, it was really eye-opening watching the huge handfuls of salt that they’d throw into everything! That’s why cooking at home and not using pre-made food is the way to go…although I’m about to go eat an Amy’s frozen meal, so it’s sometimes easier said than done haha.

I’ve never tried Salt Lite. Does it give foods an “off” flavor?

I find avoiding salt a huge struggle, it’s everywhere!

For cooking and table salt, I use a the half-potassium “lite” salt, which helps a bit. But like you said, table salt is only part of the issue.
