Twenty of America's Saltiest Foods
 MSNBC has an interesting feature called "The 20 saltiest foods in America." They could not possibly have tested all the foods in America but they have certainly found twenty extremely salty foods. Here's a sample of the findings.
Saltiest Dish in America: Romano's Macaroni Grill Chicken Portobello - 7,300 mg sodium, 1,020 calories, 66 g fat
Saltiest Dessert: Atlanta Bread Company Raspberry Scone - 1,750 mg sodium, 360 calories
Saltiest Appetizer: Papa John's Cheesesticks with Buffalo Sauce - 6,700 mg sodium, 2,605 calories, 113 g fat, 296 g carbs
Saltiest TV Dinner: Swanson Hungry-Man XXL Roasted Carved Turkey - 4,480 mg sodium, 1,360 calories, 70 g fat
A lot of frozen foods have high salt counts in addition to Hungry-Man frozen dinner mentioned above. That's a grocery store aisle you may want to avoid if you are trying to cut salt.
