Packing Lunch that you won't trade

So I have been gathering info on low-sodium foods that can make it feel like you are still normal.
Just to make a sandwich was not an option... most breads are 180 - 300 for one slice... by the time you added meat and a condiment your quick sandwich is over 1000 mg of sodium... Yikes! so much for a packed lunch. Kroger has some lower cost meats and whole wheat bread that makes a sandwich possible and still allows you to have something to drink with it besides water.

A sandwich from these items is 25 mg for 2 slices of bread, 400 mg for 4 slices of LS ham, and 50mg for Lacy Swiss cheese, and 50mg for 1T of mustard... that is 525 for a decent sandwich, you can still have a handful of No Salt Kettle Chips and a 20oz Pepsi... you are at 585mg of sodium... throw in a Dove Dark Chocolate bar... you got a packed lunch.
