Thirded. I like the lower salt ones. Not as keen on the โ€œbeefโ€™

Lower salt is why I use them.

@Catfish @Seagoon_ @melbourne If you ever have to cook for a vegetarian or a vegan, a good substitute for mince is the textured vegetable protein from Woolies with Massel chicken.

For those who've never used it, you find the TVP as a dry powder in the health food aisle.

Basically, you mix it up as per the packet instructions, but add in one teaspoon of Massel, plus herbs, spices, and seasonings. (I usually use a pinch of cumin, pepper, and paprika.)

Best of all, because it's dry, it will happily live in your cupboard for an extended period of time.
