Why are canned foods rich in sodium?

This is because in canned foods bacteria aren't the only things that contribute to food spoilage. Discoloration comes immediately to mind, but that's not the only thing. Flavors can change. Textures can break down. Foods can take on flavors from their containers. Salt which contains sodium, does create an environment inhospitable to bacteria but it also tends to interfere with some of these other processes, making it useful as a preservative even in a largely sterile environment.
