most grocery stores have it, the regular has a red cap and the low sodium a green one. they are usually right next to each other. none here at home, will try to check label when I go to store.

I found the Kikoman in both the regular and "lower sodium". The regular was off the charts. It was 900+ per serving. The lower sodium was 575 mg per serving, which is about 10 times my acceptable level. I will just omit it, forget about the Moo Goo or use Mama's recipe for making Soy sauce but using Herb-Ox broth mix instead of the bouillon. Thanks for all the help though guys.
Sorry jpshaw. I know that the kikoman lite has about 40% less sodium than the regular soy and taste so much better. I didn't know what your acceptable levels where.
My acceptable level is about 1500 mg per day. Breakfast is a bowl of oatmeal which means my other two meals need to be 700 mg or less, total. Thats why I am always looking for a lower level condiment or recipe. Mama Mangia has been a very big help. Has a recipe for just about every condiment there is. Congestive heart failure really ruins your diet guys. :mad:
May I please ask - you say you have oatmeal for breakfast -
