Most canned foods, especially soups and veggies, are loaded with sodium.

It's a combination preservative and "flavour-enhancer".

I prefer fresh veggies and dry beans, where, in both cases, the sodium content can be regulated by the chef. It's amazing how good food tastes when not overwhelmed by salt. Plus you can adjust the prep to make them as al dente as you want.
