Default OT maybe? Salt substitute

Interesting stuff, but no different that using restraint.

First, it contains 33% LESS, not 33% total. Next, it is less by volume. They
"fluff" it up so a teaspoon is only 2/3 the volume of regular salt. A pound
of salts sense equals the same sodium as a pound of regular salt. Close to
what kosher salt is.

Sounds like to 13 ounce one pound coffee cans.
