With chronic kidney disease the kidneys may not clear potassium, and blood levels can become too high; NIDDK advises working with your health care team on potassium, and notes that some packaged foods use potassium chloride in place of salt (niddk.nih.gov).

Per 100 g, the list starts elsewhere
The portion ranking compares everyday foods at the portion FDA's reference amounts describe (USDA's NLEA serving where it lists one). Seasonings, sauces, powders, dried and concentrated forms, raw meat and fish, uncooked grains and dry beans, restaurant items and foods without a household measure near that portion are ranked per 100 g only: nobody eats a cup of dried thyme. Per 100 g, these lead:
| Food | Potassium per 100 g | In the portion ranking |
|---|---|---|
| Baobab powder | 2,189 mg | not an everyday portion (rule above) |
| Raspberry juice concentrate | 1,178 mg | not an everyday portion (rule above) |
| Prunes, dehydrated (low-moisture), uncooked | 1,058 mg | not an everyday portion (rule above) |
| Prune puree | 852 mg | ranked 37 |
| Raisins | 744 mg | ranked 32 |
| Raisins, dark, seedless (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program) | 744 mg | ranked 33 |
