Generally, most prepackaged meals are loaded down with sodium. I found that almost all resturaunt foods (even items on the Weight Watchers menu) have a rediculous amount of sodium. For example: Applebee's Weight Watchers Jalepeno-Lime Grilled Shrimp only has 300 calories and 43 carbs . . . but a rediculous 2950mg of sodium. That's more then my daily allowance all in one meal. Custom order your food and tell them no seasonings. In that case you tell them I just want the shrimp, the steamed veggies, and put the slice of lime on the plate (or have them get it from the bar).

Top items with high sodium content:
1) table salt/baking soda/baking powder
2) Bouillon cubes, Powdered Broths, Soups, and Gravies
3) Soy Sauce, Other Sauces, and Salad Dressings
4) Yeast Extract Spread (Marmite)
5) Salami, Bacon, and Cured Meats
6) Sun Dried Tomatoes
7) Cheese
8) Snack Foods (Pretzels, Cheese Puffs, and Popcorn)
9) Pickled Foods
10) Saltwater Crab
