So if you swap an equal volume of Morton's for Diamond Crystal, you will likely be oversalting. You can use Morton's, just use less. | |

| Sep 28, 2022 at 18:15 | comment | added | Ecnerwal | Just an effect of the marketing department at Diamond Crystal pushing out more recipes with their brand specified into the places you are seeing recipes from, I'm pretty sure. "Build market share by free recipes" and hope folks are gullible enough to think it matters. | |
