Do you ever wonder how much sodium you are taking in just by the food choices you make? Now, you can take the Sunkist Sodium Quiz on Facebook to find out where you fit on the sodium scale. You can also share and compare your results with your friends. Want to know my results? I’m a shake and baker.

Have an issue with using too much salt? Now, you can use the  Sunkist S’alternative. What is that you ask? It’s the method of squeezing Sunkist lemons on to your food to add more flavor and to help cutback on salt, increase potassium and enhance the flavor of recipes.

I like to squeeze lemon on my seafood. I couldn’t believe the difference the lemon juice made in my meals.

To get you started with the Sunkist S’alternative , here is a recipe:
