How this ranking is made
2,595 products in the aisle declare sodium; 2,337 are ranked, leaving out 1 placeholders with near-zero energy; 137 records whose label contradicts itself or that sit outside the aisle's range; 120 that do not declare all seven core label values (each rule). Values are per 100 g as each manufacturer submitted them to USDA, one product per UPC (its newest submission that meets the data contract), and one per product sold under several UPCs with the same label. The top 100 are shown; each was read again from USDA's live record at this release, and USDA's corrections are applied.
