Table Tasty version - Great tasting salt substitute
Love the taste and health benefits of this Table Tasty version of Benson's. Have been using it for a couple of years after my brother gave me a humongous package of it. Has a slight lemon flavor. Table Tasty blend really is a nice salt substitute with nutritional yeast as a primary ingredient plus other herbs and ingredients - and without added potassium, important to those of you for whom added potassium can be detrimental to your health.The quality and taste of Table Tasty absolutely warrant 5 stars.Because of that, I didn't deduct any stars but you should know this about Benson's small shake-top container. After only 3 uses, the thinner-than-normal, flimsy plastic flip-top lid has broken in half where the flip top connects to the screw-on base. Another problem is the size of the holes in the shaker top. Holes are much too large for table use, so instead of a sprinkle, it dumps way too much in one spot, yes even though I'm holding it a severe angle and trying to shake sparingly. I specifically ordered this small shaker-top version so I would have a container to shake on food after it was already prepared and plated. Today I'm going to swap the top out with a sturdier one from another brand spice container that has with smaller holes.I have also ordered a subscription of the large package of Table Tasty since I also use a lot of it in cooking. It's a staple in all of my savory foods recipes.For those of you who have have medical conditions and need to cook with no salt added and are trying to find good quality and affordable sources, I can also highly recommend Marshalls Creek Spices for their No Salt Added blends. My brother and I have been buying - directly - from Marshalls Creek Spices for years. Tons of spice blends available - NSA and regular - and cost is excellent, including shipping price. Their fliptop shake containers are much sturdier than Benson's. My brother has been buying from MCS longer than I have, and he now buys the bulk packages and refills his shaker containers which have been holding up well for 10+ years. Marshalls Creek Spices also offers several different container sizes including bulk packages. MCS also uses sturdy shipping boxes. This is in contrast to the soft-side envelope that Benson's small shaker-top version came shipped in from Amazon - in the same package as a set of hand towels and a blouse, so I'm glad the Benson's didn't get broken during shipping.Now that I found Benson's on Amazon and see that they have other flavor blends, not just their Table Tasty blend, I may try some of their others.

The Best Salt Substitute Ever!
This product is an excellent salt substitute. It provides a salty taste without being overwhelming. I use it on eggs, grits, everything. I thought I would miss my potassium-based salt substitute, but I don't. This taste so much better and it doesn't leave a bad aftertaste. It actually provides additional seasoning and flavor enhancement for food.

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.

Tastes good but container lid needs redesign
It's tasty, not like salt, but still quite good. I use it over eggs and popcorn.I'm only giving three stars as it cakes quickly while in the container once opened. What happens is the spices that don't fully come out when the container is being used get all over the lid, making it hard to close. Therefore it dries out, clumps and cakes, and no longer easily comes out. To avoid this make sure you close the lid tightly after each use. Easier said than done though as the seasoning gets in all the books and crannies of the lid. Certainly there's a better dispensing option than what they're using.

Fantastic Salt Substitute
Fantastic product. My doctor put me on a very restrictive low sodium diet. I have tried several products and was left very disappointed. This salt substitute is wonderful. It has zero sodium and tastes just like salt. I will be ordering more in the future.

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.
