    I’m a filthy vegan and former tobacco smoker that doesn’t indulge in sweets. I’m scared to actually calculate my salt intake as I over season everything I eat. For a while I thought I was being healthy not using table salt on anything, until I realized hot sauce and tamari are essentially liquid sodium.

      Yep. My favorite hot sauce has 1200mg of sodium per two tablespoons… And I would drench my food in that shit.

      Same with soy sauce. Each of those little packets you get from your favorite Chinese place is probably at least 300mg of sodium.
