Our experts conducted blind taste tests of no-salt-added cottage cheese
and scrambled eggs to which we'd added a salt alternative. In all, they
tried two substitutes and two blends. They also tasted the same foods
with regular iodized salt and sea salt. (Sea salt is coarser and
provides less sodium, since fewer grains will fit in the same-size
measuring spoon.) The three products that contained potassium
chloride€”Morton Lite Salt Mixture (290 milligrams of sodium per ¼
teaspoon), Nu-Salt (0 mg), and No Salt Original (0 mg)€”didn't impress
the tasters, who generally described them as bitter, metallic, or having
an aftertaste. Only Diamond Crystal Salt Sense, a blend without
potassium chloride, tasted pretty much like real salt. And it has
roughly one-third less sodium (390 mg per ¼ teaspoon).

Bottom line
If you want to trim sodium yet maintain taste, try Diamond Crystal Salt
Sense or simply substitute herbs or spices for some of the salt you
usually use.

AlsoSalt is a salt substitute that isn't salt, but tastes like it. It is
completely salt free without the bitter aftertaste that other salt
substitutes have. For your low sodium diet, or even salt free diet, you
can now salt foods all you like. It tastes great and it's healthy. Its
two main ingredients, potassium and lysine are completely natural. Both
are nutrients that are essential to good health. You not only remove
salt from your diet - you are replacing it with nutrients. Our patented
process masks the metallic aftertaste found in other salt substitutes.
Use it in cooking, baking, or simply sprinkle it directly on your food
as you would salt. AlsoSalt is a "true scientific breakthrough" and
holds patents worldwide. AlsoSalt is OU kosher certified.
