Bouillon has been one of my best friends for many years, and it has become even more important since I've had to cook for a low sodium diet. My favorite brand has less sodium than even the 50% sodium "Lite Salt", and adds a depth of flavor that salt alone just can't touch!

for me, no neeed for the added salt. enough in sour cream, bouillion, mayo, and the sauce
