Notice I said meal and the recommendation is per day.

If it's 1,500 milligrams per day, it would be 500 milligrams per meal, assuming the usual 3 meals per day. So divide 500 into 3,480 milligrams of sodium and one sandwich comes to almost 7 times the normal amount of sodium for that one meal.
Health expert have reversed their opinion on salt 1500 is too low the body needs more google it
