Low-Sodium Survival at Mexican Food Trucks

Mexican food trucks are a treasure trove of bold flavors, but hidden sodium can turn a delicious meal into a dietary challenge. Whether you’re managing hypertension or simply cutting back on salt, the mm food app is your secret weapon for savoring street food safely.

How MM Food Helps You Navigate Low-Sodium Options

1. Instant Menu Translations
   • Scan or upload a menu photo, and the app translates it to your preferred language, ensuring you understand every ingredient.
   • Avoid confusion with dishes like adobado (marinated meat) or chorizo (spicy sausage), which often pack hidden salt.
2. AI-Powered Sodium Analysis
   • Input your dietary restrictions (e.g., <1,500mg sodium/day) and let the app flag high-sodium items.
   • Discover safer picks: grilled carne asada tacos, fresh nopales (cactus salad), or aguachile (shrimp ceviche) made to order.
3. Smart Substitutions
   • The app suggests swaps, like skipping seasoned rice for plain grilled veggies or requesting salsa verde instead of salty queso fresco.

Pro Tips for Low-Sodium Food Truck Success

• Avoid the Usual Suspects: Tortilla chips, processed cheeses, and pre-marinated meats are sodium landmines.
• Ask for 'Light Salts': Use the app’s phrasebook feature to request "más ligero en sal, por favor" (lighter on salt, please).
• Hydrate Smart: Pair your meal with coconut water or lime-infused H2O using the app’s beverage filter.

With mm food, low-sodium dining doesn’t mean missing out on Mexico’s vibrant street food culture. Taste boldly, eat safely!
