This would be a good deal if it was a pass for 30 tacos but the idea of having to go everyday is retarded.

I was thinking about how companies don't do stuff like this anymore. Pepsi points, free sprites, free soda for the year with a certain cup, etc.

Unless you have a medical condition that necessitates you moderate your sodium intake, then there is almost no way you need to lower your sodium.

I do have a medical condition.
And your statement is not really true, most peoples diet (use to be mine) has way to much sodium in it. High blood pressure (which leads to heart attack and stroke) is a HUGH problem. Everyone could use a lot less sodium in their diet.

The thing is, sodium is so prevalent that even just a normal diet is way to high. It is in pretty much any processed food you eat. It is actually really annoying trying to eat a low sodium diet as its just everywhere and in everything
Edit: Yeah, a soft pretzel with extra salt and cheese dipping sauce...that's heaven for sure.

This is an entirely debunked myth from decades ago.
There is no evidence that sodium affects blood pressure in normal individuals (i.e. people that do not have a genetic predisposition to high blood pressure). The evidence used by the AHA to demonize salt intake was based entirely on rat studies and all subsequent human research shows about a 1 point systolic improvement and about a .5 point diastolic improvement just be decreasing salt intake. Weight loss is a much more significant factor in blood pressure improvement in normal individuals by many times.
That being said, you are an abnormal case, likely genetically, and so it makes sense for you to take extra precautions given the very good data suggesting that high blood pressure is related to increased health problems. That 1/.5 reduction is probably worth it in your case, and more power to you.
For the vast majority of people without genetically high blood pressure, though, sodium is simply not an issue. In fact, sodium is necessary to live and reducing it too much is far worse in normal individuals than increasing it.

Sodium Intake and Hypertension
The close relationship between hypertension and dietary sodium intake is widely recognized and supported by several studies. A reduction in dietary sodium not only decreases the blood pressure and the incidence of hypertension, but is also associated ...

Those are the worst, but occasionally you get the god tier bags that have enough dust for two bags.
These weren’t necessarily my favorite flavor, but fucking loved how much seasoning they put on each chip

Think it was this thread discussing hot sauces.
Got some black label Valentina extra hot based on the discussion. It's pretty good for cheap hot sauce. Good on eggs and basically everything I like Tapatio for, but I still like Tapatio better (or maybe just brand loyalty).
Wondering if anyone has a green hot sauce to recommend. Never been a verde fan, but local taco truck has an amazing serrano salsa that has me branching out. Not expecting anything that good, but hoping there are some bottled options people like.
Got some El Yucateco,
but just tastes like green, underripe habanero to me (because it is hah). It's not bad, but wanting something less hot, more salsa-like flavor so the girlfriend can use it. It's got a pouring bottle instead of spurting spout, so has been funny watching my girlfriend pour on too much every time she tries any.
To be even more annoying I don't like the flavor of the multiple hatch chili sauces I've tried. Not Anaheim. Doesn't seem to be many serrano based hot sauces googling, though, so hoping some people has some ideas.

ya el yuc is more for adding strait heat vs flavor
cholula green pepper is always good
sounds strange, but tacobell's verda salsa is money, not hot at all, but very good - I think it's discontinued in bottle form but there's so many floating around you can get em on amazon

Mind blown. Never knew taco bell even had a green sauce because I guess I never thought to ask. Googled it, green packets and everything and I swear I've never even seen one. Might have just been invented by the simulation for all I know.
Will try some if I ever go to Taco Bell again. Last time there was a ball of crusty rice at the bottom of my cheesy bean and rice burrito, and that's about standard locally these days sadly.

Nope not any more, they discontinued the packets - you use to be able to get it in cups after that, but i'm pretty sure thats gone. There's just some bottles on amazon left. Reading the reviews some we're good, some close to exp (exp date for a bottled sauce like that is dumb anyways, it's good for years after).

amazon has a 3 for 8bucks deal here.
this is what i've always wanted from a mexican hotsauce w/o the weirdness of el yucata or valentina, or the blandness of tapito, they took me to a mexican grocer afterwards to buy, but i only saw the 6oz bottle (fuck tsa and can't bring liquids, we only had carryons), so i went online to amazon instead
