I was recently diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure. I would love to eat Velveeta cheese (mac and cheese or Toasted Cheese sandwiches ). I'm not anymore. Velveeta contains 420 mg/17% (daily intake of salt) - one ounce of Velveeta. The daily requirement is 2,000 or less and 2,ooo mgs equals about 3/4 tsp. You would not believe in a million years how much salt is in food for little kids, fast food shops, store bought cooked chicken, turkey, beef. Ham and bacon is a taste of the past for me. The only cheese I eat now is mozzarella and Swiss. I don't mean to burst anyone's bubble as far as food is concerned, but for what it is worth, I lost 20 lbs when I quit the salt bit. Order your French Fries with no salt - I eat french fries no salt and use no salt catsup - can't tell the difference. There is a lot going on with CHF - I have it now forever - I am 76 and have a lot of quilts to make yet - Edie
