This website looks good: http://www.nutritiondata.com/

And there's a big article right on the front page about salt. I liked this quote:
"The majority of people don't have high blood pressure--and most of those who do are not salt sensitive."

and this was news to me:
"Reducing sodium enough to lower blood pressure has also been shown to reduce insulin sensitivity" - bad news for those with diabetes and insulin resistance.
