Last week, ConAgra Foods Inc. (CAG) announced that it would reduce salt by 20% across its portfolio of food products by 2015. Since 2006, the company has already removed more than 2 million pounds of salt from it products. The company’s commitment builds on ConAgra Foods’ legacy as a leader in helping consumers reduce and control sodium intake.  More than 20 years ago, ConAgra Foods introduced Healthy Choice meals to the marketplace, the first and still the only line of meals in the grocery store to earn the “healthy" label, in part, for meeting the U.S. government’s recommendations for healthy sodium levels.  In fact, the latest HealthFocus Trend Report noted that both interest in and use of lower salt options among primary grocery shoppers has increased dramatically over the past four years.

The H. J. Heinz Company (HNZ) did not meet the net sales target for fiscal 2009. Net sales were flat year-over-year due to a 7% unfavorable currency translation, commodity inflation, and the global economic slowdown. The company had targeted sales growth of 6% for fiscal 2009. Moreover, both gross and operating margins were also down for the year.

Raw materials and packaging used in the company's business include tomato paste, grains, beef, poultry, vegetables, steel, glass, paper and resin. Many of these materials are subject to price fluctuations from a number of factors. Commodity inflation has been constricting the company's margins.

In addition, the company operates in the highly competitive food industry and experiences worldwide competition in all of its principal products. This often forces the company to reduce its pricing, while increasing marketing or other expenditures, which in turn may have a material adverse effect on its profitability. Moreover,
