The overall objective of this study is to assist the general public in achieving and maintaining the currently recommended sodium intake of 1500 mg/day through a reduced sodium intervention that emphasizes spices and herbs. The investigators hypothesize that after four weeks of eating a controlled diet, individuals will acclimate and adhere to a reduced sodium intake of 1500 mg/day and their taste preferences will change. The investigators also hypothesize that individuals in a low sodium behavioral intervention will maintain greater adherence to a dietary sodium intake of ≤ 1500 mg/day than individuals in a self-directed control group.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Adults to whom the U.S. Dietary Guideline of < 1500 mg/day of sodium applies

Exclusion Criteria:

• Individuals with chronic kidney disease,
• Chronic poor health state,
• Pregnancy,
• Inability to complete feeding study,
