High Streets Salads 'Saltier Than Big Mac' Finds Survey By Consensus Action On Salt | UK News | Sky News

A shocking one in 10 ready-made salads on sale contains more salt than a Big Mac, according to the Consensus Action on Salt (Cash) research.

Out of the 270 salad and pasta bowls surveyed, only six contained less salt than a packet of crisps and a tenth had more than the 2.1g contained in a Big Mac burger.

The worst offender was found to be a spicy crayfish noodles salad from Eat, containing 3.51g of salt - more than 17 times saltier than a Pret A Manger No Bread Tricolore with 0.2g of salt.
