Lightbulb here is a good list...

Cheeses are very high... check out cottage cheese! 850mg/cup!
Compare to one serving of low fat Ruffles at 180mg
So a natural food is far higher than the dreaded chips, in this case.

I think the list Curious gave is good. The worst offender is monosodium glutamate..this is in alot of foods and in high amounts.

Things like the sodium ascorbate are quite low actually, they reflect preservatives only. Products that are baked have sodium and calcium in them from the baking powders that raise them to fluffy consistency.
