Some helpful hints
I actually love the flavor compared to other substitutes that are bitter, or have a twang. I started eating this product when they advised me to lower my sodium intake but I was also on potassium so I couldn't use the potassium chloride either. In cooking there is a trick to using it and that is adding it at last stage of cooking. If you have a problem adding like as salt at a meal, add an extra flavor, peppers or spice that reduce the taste you don't like. In addition: Lemon Juice in small amounts can also take the place of salt. Unless you are advised against use of lemons.

Well worth. the price...a penny per serving
This is a very good spice blend that does in fact leave you feeling as if you had ingested actual salt.Unlike other similar leading products, Bensons does not contain potassium or potassium chloride which can also pose health concerns if one suffers from CKD.In reading the reviews of others some express concern of the price compared to its competitors. First of all they are not comparing apples to apples. Bensons has its own unique blend without potassium chloride. The bottle states 85 servings per container which equates to a little over a penny (1.4 cents ) per serving. Expensive? In most cases I think not. Do your self a favor and try a bottle to see if you want to commit further. I did and it passed with flying colors for me

Good
This is actually a pretty nice alternative to salt. It takes a little bit to get use to. It has a lemon flavor to it so if you don't like that, you may want to try something else. Surprisingly, I don't like lemon but I've adjusted to this. It works well on almost every meat, although I didn't like it on tilapia as much. It does not do well on vegetables, but it's great on potatoes. It's alot of trial and error with every food you try it on. It does add enough flavor to not miss salt as much.

Too expensive for what you get!
Too expensive. You can get similar flavor results using something like Dash (I.e., Mrs. Dash) for about $3. Or, make your own concoction, using herbs & spices – ground onion powder, garlic powder, etc. I won’t be buying this project again.

Sodium Free & Low in Potassium
This salt substitute may not look like regular salt, but it sure does taste like it. The added feature for me is that it’s also low in potassium. I don’t care for the taste of salt, but I DO like it on corn. It’s a bit tan in appearance but it really works for my use. It’s a small size bottle and the holes are big. I emptied the bottle into a different salt shaker and that works better for me. If you need to cut down on your sodium plus potassium, give this a try. I’m glad I did!

My FAVORITE Salt-Substitute ever!! LOVE! ♥
I absolutely love the flavor of this seasoning. I discovered it a few years ago & was using it up too fast, so I slowed it down for awhile, as it can get pricey. I need to be on a low-sodium diet & just have not discovered any seasonings that I really like, except for this one. I keep trying Mrs. Dash & others, but they are just meh! I use them, but I don't love them. So I'm back to buying this all the time.It has a lot of flavor, but it doesn't taste like regular salt. I feel like it's a salt-free seasoning, not so much a salt substitute per se. Remember everyone's taste buds are different. To me, it has a 'LEMONY-SOUR' flavor. I use it on so many things, but my favorite is on things with butter/margarine, such as baked potatoes, cooked vegetables, popcorn, etc. l also love it sprinkled on salt-free potato chips, low-sodium Ritz crackers, just about anything that needs a flavor boost. I've also used it on buttered toast as a simple snack. I've never used it for cooking, only for sprinkling on afterwards.Besides providing the much needed flavor for salt-free foods, I love that it has NO pepper, no garlic, no potassium chloride, no sodium. It's NOT spicy like so many other seasonings. If you're expecting a straight salt flavor, there's a chance you could be disappointed. But if you're open to trying a different kind of flavoring, I'd say to try it... I would use it even if I didn't need to watch my diet.A few cons:- The price. It has gone up quite a bit in the last few years. It's a small bottle & sprinkles out freely, so it goes fast if you use it often. It's expensive.- There are some crunchy, hard pieces dispersed throughout, pieces of dehydrated veggies, I believe, carrots etc. ~I could do without those~ I don't like biting into anything hard. I once read a review where a reviewer said she would grind it up, but I can't be bothered with that.- It can get 'cakey' on the bottom in humid weather. But it never lasts that long in my house.I've been known to bring it to restaurants with me.I recommend it & have done so to many people.5 stars.

Useless expensive product
I just used it on my pasta, not only doesn’t taste lie salt, it tastes so unpleasant that had to take a sip of some drink after each half spoonful, no exaggeration, I needed some nutrition, I am planning to wash and boil most of the pasta in the pot.This are the problems with this product:1-First of all it has no salty taste!2- It has no potassium th element that most people on salt substitute nee!3- It Does not taste like anything if you use small amount and taste bad if you increase the amount in search of salty taste!!!!4- It is expensive, not only for its bad/ useless qualities, it is expensive for its amount
