Answers:
Most processed food has salt, and lots of it in it!. Some of those "Healthy Choice" Meals have OVER 1/3 of the salt you need in a day - which is about a teaspoon!.
Bearito's Brand Chips have less than 35 mg of salt!.
Here's an excellent guide to packaged/process foods and food ingredients that are low-salt!. Eating foods you've prepared yourself is the easiest way to control your salt intake!.

well there are a few things you can actually do !.!.!.
firstly: don't get take-out because you'll find most take-out places are high in sodium!.
Secondly: Avoid processed foods!. Fresh produce, meat, and freshwater fish are typically salt-free or extremely low sodium, while processed and restaurant foods, such as soups and frozen dinners, are usually quite high in sodium!. If you don't have access to fresh vegetables, then sodium-free or low sodium canned vegetables are better than high sodium canned vegetables
thirdly: Remove sodium from the surface of foods!. For some products, the salt can be removed, such as by draining canned olives and soaking them in fresh water, or crumbling salt off the surface of pretzels or saltines
fourthly:Take the salt shaker away!. By not using salt when cooking or eating, many people can reduce their sodium intake by 30%!. You can replace the salt shaker with a pepper mill, rosemary, garlic powder (not garlic salt), chili powder, or other spices
lastly:Be cautious of "softened" water!. Water softeners sometimes add a substantial amount of sodium!. Avoid drinking such water; instead use bottled water or a reverse osmosis filter!. Ideally you should also avoid cooking with "softened" water (although using bottled water for cooking could be quite expensive)!.
But that also means you have to do all of this together like if you prepare baked ramen noodles, without the spice packet, then add fresh vegetables and potatoes, then add freshly ground pepper!. If it still needs salt, add a small amount of the seasoning packet!.
