                                According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, foods can be labeled "sodium-free" if they contain less than 5mg of sodium per serving. The simple fact is that pure, unadulterated vinegar does not have a high sodium content, with most varieties being practically sodium-free. This makes it an excellent tool for flavoring food without adding significant salt.
