I never add salt to anything. Not french fries, hamburgers, steaks, popcorn - really any food. I look at labels when purchasing soups (which I rarely do these days) and try to eat as much home made food as possible. Balsamic Vinegar and Olive oil dressings as opposed to creamy dressings. If I'm eating tortilla chips, I purchase unsalted and avoid potato chips as much as possible. Also, homemade pico instead of some crappy store bought salsa (which is mostly garbage, IMO, anyway).
The other thing is I do is use pepper instead of salt, whether it's powdered black, peppercorn, cayenne, etc. I'll also use a variety of Mrs. Dash seasonings, which are sodium free.
Penzey's has fantastic spices, especially their Buttermilk Ranch (which blows away the traditional Ranch mixes, IMO, and are awesome with sliced cucumbers and has far less sodium). Their Chipotle Ground Red is the ****ing bomb.
