    I wanted to share some information I just found on Goya's website! "Now Goya Sazón comes in a no salt variety, Sazón Natural & Complete. It’s the secret ingredient that delivers all the authentic Latino flavor of traditional Sazón without the addition of salt." Hope that info is of use to everyone! - 7/23/10
