Bacon just seems to make everything taste better, don't you think? Well, almost everything. I think the Kirkland brand from Costco is the best low sodium option. It's lower in sodium than most of the other brands I've encountered and still available. I've tried the Safeway brand too, but unfortunately my local store stopped stocking it. That's one of the frustrations of following a low sodium diet. Sometimes a great new product is discontinued by the manufacturer or your local stores stop carrying it. Thanks for keeping tabs on the various options available. It's good to know there is more than just one brand of low sodium bacon out there.
ReplyDeleteBacon really does make everything taste better =)
ReplyDeleteWe are really lucky, the Thrifty's Grocery Store chain's house brand Compliments has a ton of low sodium options and they are working to produce more, including deli items.
But I suppose you have Trader Joe's, which we don't have and they have quite a few options as well.
It is frustration that low sodium items do seem to pop up and disappear quite often, so shopping often requires many stops.
