News: Taco Bell Testing Reduced-Sodium Menu

While fast food is often derided for being high in calories and fat, it is less often pointed out how high in sodium a lot of fast food items are. So for those of you watching or trying to reduce your sodium intake, you'll be happy to hear that, according to NRN, Taco Bell has been testing a lower-sodium menu in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, and that it's very likely to expand nationwide.

The overall change is about a 23% reduction in sodium across the Taco Bell menu that, notably, customers haven't noticed.

As someone who often finds a lot of fast food a little too salty, I'm looking forward to the change (even if I don't notice it).
