Like there is so much salt in processed food I never felt the need to actually use the salt shaker (until I cut out processed food).

What does this mean for iodine intake? [FYI iodine was added to salt a long time ago because they found people were low in iodine. At the time people used salt shakers. Are we low now because, I’m figuring, people don’t use salt shakers as much? Some googling says processed food doesn’t use iodized salt.]

    I usually get the low/no sodium options so that I can use my salt shaker. I don’t know if it’s the iodine, but pre salted foods are always bland to me and i end up adding a ton of extra salt anyway.
