    Make your own. Or buy them at a farmer's market. It's the heavily processed ones that have all the sodium. :)

    I don't necessarily love pickles they are okay but, I do love the favour olives add to a dish. I think that either item would be a small part of your meal so maybe that helps to not make the sodium content not too big of a problem.

    There are no sodium and lower sodium substitutes for most foods.

    yeah, me too. But then again, the bane of my existence..sodium.. You know they said on the national news the other night that just cutting out 1 tsp of salt a day is the same benefit to your heart as quitting smoking! Seriously! I didn't know.
