Have you *tasted* potassium chloride? It's very bitter. My mother had
high blood pressure and was told to lay off sodium. She tried it (along
with Morton 'Lite Salt' which is a blend of sodium chloride and
potassium chloride). Nasty stuff!

That's when I told her about Mrs. Dash no-salt seasoning blends.
Unsalted food doesn't have to be bland. It does take some getting used to.
