A few tiny shakes out of a salt shaker isn't going to come close to 90mg. Figure about 40mg because I use a very small amount of it when I do use it. I'd have to eat 9 of mine to get the same salt content as a plant burger sold here.

But wait, there's more! National brands of everything here load their products up with salt. Buns, condiments, fries, drinks are all packed with sodium. Under the guise of eating healthy, one can eat a loaded up plant burger w/fries and a cola and consume a day' worth of salt in one sitting.

370mg of salt in a single patty is an absurd amount of salt.

Really? You're saying "a few tiny shakes out of a salt shaker" isn't going to give you as much as one 25th of a teaspoon?
