Lowest sodium: canned beans, ranked
The canned beans with the least sodium on Australian shelves is Edgell Beans Red Kidney No Added Salt at 7 mg sodium per 100 g, verified against the pack label.
The quiet catch of canned legumes is the brine. Between a regular salted can and its salt-reduced or no-added-salt sibling the sodium figure can more than double for the same beans, and the spread across the shelf runs from near zero to several hundred milligrams per 100 g. Ranked lowest first.
Method. Sodium per 100 g from the verified dataset, per 100 g as drained where the label declares drained weight. Most of the sodium sits in the brine, so a thorough rinse removes a meaningful share of it; the ranking reflects the can as declared, before rinsing. The FSANZ low-salt claim threshold is 120 mg per 100 g. Covers the 87 on-shelf products with this
value; updated with the shelf. Ties rank jointly. Never sponsored, never hand-ordered.
