No salt added cheese dips and quesos
No cheese dips and quesos here carry “no salt added”, “unsalted” or “low sodium” in the name.
“No salt added” and “unsalted” mean that no salt goes in while the food is made, on a food that is normally made with salt. Neither means no sodium: the other ingredients have sodium of their own. When the food is not sodium free, the package has to say “not a sodium free food” or “not for control of sodium in the diet” next to the Nutrition Facts.
Salt free cheese dips and quesos
“Salt free” is stricter. A package may say it only when the food is sodium free, under 5 mg. None of the cheese dips and quesos here is that low.

Questions about low sodium cheese dips and quesos
What are low sodium cheese dips and quesos?
Cheese dips and quesos with 140 mg or less of sodium in 2 tbsp (30 mL), the amount federal labeling rules use to compare cheese dips and quesos, and in 50 g: the rules test a food with a small serving on 50 g as well. That is the line for the words “low sodium” on a package. “Very low sodium” is 35 mg or less, tested the same way, and “sodium free” is under 5 mg.
Are there sodium free or no sodium cheese dips and quesos?
No. “Sodium free” and “no sodium” on a package both mean under 5 mg in 2 tbsp (30 mL) and in the package's own serving. The lowest here has 12 mg in a serving, on an older package.
Are there reduced sodium cheese dips and quesos?
No cheese dips and quesos here carry “reduced sodium”, “less sodium” or “lower sodium” in the name. On a package those words mean at least 25 percent less sodium than the regular food it is compared with, so reduced sodium cheese dips and quesos can still be above the low sodium line.

How to read the numbers
Sodium in one serving, from the package's Nutrition Facts. The serving is next to it.
% Daily Value is that serving's share of 2,300 mg, the Daily Value for sodium on US packages.
In 2 tbsp (30 mL): every package on the same amount, so a small serving and a large one line up.
Level: a green tag means the package meets a federal level in 2 tbsp and in 50 g: low sodium (140 mg or less), very low sodium (35 mg or less) or sodium free (under 5 mg). A label that gives its serving only in mL does not say what 50 g holds, so that package gets no tag.
Nutrition opens the rest of one serving's Nutrition Facts and the ingredient list. More nutrition puts those numbers in the list, to order by any of them.
Filters narrow the list by store, brand, the words on the label and ingredients. An ingredient filter also leaves out products that give no ingredient list.
2024 or newer: the list opens with packages from 2024 or later. Untick the box to add older ones; some may have changed or left the shelf.
These are package numbers, not advice. How much sodium is right for you is for your doctor or dietitian to say.
