I've got a jar of NOW Potassium Chloride. It's 10% of daily potassium (365mg) and yells at you multiple times to not take more than 3 servings.
Tastes fine except for when I forget I've put it in my water glass, go for a drink expecting water and it's warm saltish water. ugh.

I'm from Toronto and couldn't find it anywhere but all you need is a generic potassium chloride suppplement. It's pretty much the same thing and only took a couple days to ship. 1.5tsp will get you daily requirement. Just sprinkle it in place of salt.
Ah, then you may not be getting enough actual absorbed magnesium. I'd try the Doctor's Best. I can personally vouch for it. Or you might want to try the Innovix stuff, which adds mag malate. That's what I'm taking now.
Edit: Also be aware that potassium pills are not legally allowed to provide more than 99g of actual absorbable potassium per pill. So for our purposes, they're actually not that useful. I've been pouring the powdered stuff into a tall glass of water three times a day. Once in the morning, then as soon as I get home from work, then before I go to bed. Don't try to get your day's allowance all at once. Gotta split it up, or else you can have issues.
If you don't mind, could you tell me if these products I've found on amazon are right or not?
Epsom Salt
Pottasium Chloride
Rock Salt

Also, why is lemon/lime not recommended? Did I break my fasts by having one/two lemons a day!
Yes, Cronometer is great. I track all my foods using it. I don't eat avocado often nor sunflower seeds, but I am able to get about 2000 mg potassium a day from chicken, vegetables, and nuts. You really don't need to absolutely hit the potassium recommend daily allowance. It really depends on how your body feels. I used lite-salt for the first week of keto and haven't used it since. You won't really know your needs until you try it.
If you really want to make sure you're getting your potassium, I don't see the problem with taking the 99mg tablets. Otherwise, there is potassium powder you can take, like this one. It's 1/8 tsp, put in a shot glass with some water, toss it back and chase it with something else.
I can see how not being able to cook all your own food can be limiting, so that is definitely something you'd have to decide for yourself.
