Default Salt/Sodium Cracked

I heard when ever a recipe gives the amount of Sodium it has Diamond Crystal Salt measurements is uaed as the base. In that case the box said 1/4 teaspoon is 1.1 g, which has 430 mg sodium. With this base a TV dinner with 2130 mg sodium contains almost 1 Tbs. + 1/2 Tsp. of salt, WOW! I have never had or even seen a recipe that called for that much salt. What do you think about this
