Acid + Base -> Salt + Water.

HCL + NaOH -> NaCl + H20.

HCL + KOH -> KCl + H20.

And so on. NaCl, KCl are two types of salts, and they all have the same characteristics. Any Alkaline metal plus a halogen.

So ‘low sodium’ simply means switching Na for K.

Mmmm. Makes me yearn for that Campbell’s Potato soup with sulfuric acid added.
