Sodium

A single serving (measured as two tablespoons) has 280 milligrams of sodium. That’s approximately 12% of the recommend limit (based on a 2,000 calorie diet) for an entire day.

Consider whether you eat only two tablespoons of dip in a sitting. I tend to eat more than the measured serving. And when I do, I eat a higher amount of sodium than what’s stated on the nutrition facts label. It’s something to keep in mind.

Each serving of dip has 280mg of sodium (12% daily value).
