I am overseas. They do not have nutritional information on their canned goods. Can anyone check and tell me how much soduim there is in a can of mushroom please. Just mushroom and water..not soup...

Answer 1

Not possible to tell you without a brand name (and if that brand isn't sold in the US, it probably won't help). I know there are brands that are very low in sodium. My father's on a low sodium diet - I'll go over there soon and post the brand and content if he still has the can of mushrooms that I bought. In the meantime, these sites say:
3 oz canned mushrooms - 400 mg sodium

1/4 cup canned mushrooms - 200 mg

1 cup canned mushrooms - 663 mg

I have found a lot of foods with no sodium at all - Wise makes no sodium potato chips and B&G makes sour pickles with no salt, Vermont Bread Company and Alvarado Street Bakery make bread with no sodium at all, Boar's Head makes no salt added roast beef with 20 mg an ounce (this is delicious). Also, McCormick's makes grill seasoning with no salt - two flavors - chicken and steak - excellent stuff - better than Mrs Dash.

Additional: "Giorgio No Salt Added Mushrooms" - 1/2 cup has 25 mg of sodium. (yellow label)
