In fact, Panko bread crumbs do not contain any sodium at all! You can find them in the Asian cooking section of most grocery stores. And yes, in a pinch, you can totally substitute plain bread crumbs for the Panko.I used yellow potatoes in this recipe because they have thin skins and beautiful color.
