Message-ID: <117@zinfandel.UUCP> Date: Tue, 24-Jul-84 13:59:03 EDT Article-I.D.: zinfande.117 Posted: Tue Jul 24 13:59:03 1984 Date-Received: Sat, 28-Jul-84 07:46:15 EDT Organization: Zehntel Inc., Walnut Creek, CA Lines: 12 Please don't think that if you substitute soy sauce for salt in cooking that you are cutting down on your sodium intake. One of the major components of soy sauce is good ol' NaCl. I agree many dishes are interesting with 'shoyu' rather than table salt. I still use a little soy since being told to cut down on sodium, but I've lost the salt shaker (really! last time a guest wanted salt we had to drag the big jar out of the cabinet!)
