Some brands of corn flakes have up to 266 mg of sodium per cup while some brands of raisin bran have up to 342 mg of sodium per cup.

Vegetable juice

One cup of vegetable juice cocktail contains 653 mg of sodium.

Canned Vegetables

A cup of canned cream-style corn contains 730 mg of sodium.

Peanuts

An ounce of dry-roasted, salted peanuts contains 230 mg of sodium. The same size serving of dry-roasted, salted mixed nuts has 190 mg.
