Sodium In Your Food
From thegoldminer 16 years agoIngredients
- Called Campbell soup today. The phone rep explained 2400mg = 1 teaspoon of salt. Then the phone rep reminded me the amount listed on the can is per serving. So the chopped tomatoes listed 550mg but there is 2 cups (servings) per can. So 1100 in one can. Yikes, don't they know we all own salt shakers! So today I am making the final version of my 3 Yumm chili. It is called 3 Yumm as I took the second batch to neighbors for a tasting test and one after another in 3 seconds said Yumm as each tasted. I am using "no salt" stewed tomatoes with celery, green pepper and there is only 50mg per serving, way better. Will post later this week. Now we all know how to covert the sodium number on any product. I prefer to use fresh tomatoes but none available this time of the year. Campbell soup and most companies have "800" numbers on their cans or boxes. They all love to answer your questions. I call all the time. Great resource. JJ shopping list
