What are some load sodium things you use on food if you don't mind sharing?

Cooking low sodium, acid (vinegars, lemon juice, etc.) is your friend. It's a common replacement, and you'll be amazed how it plays the part of salt quite well. I also tend to amp up the spices - garlic, chiles, etc. A squeeze of fresh lemon or lime on a steak is great, btw. Very Tuscan.
But for me, I don't cut the salt out completely. I just use less than half what I normally would. Makes it so you still get a lot of the effect. Under seasoned is better than not seasoned.
