Salty drinks

What vegetables would make a great tasting salty drink? I know celery is high in sodium, but what else? Can't be tomatoes, I think I'm slightly allergic to them.

blended celery.

i use to crave salty stuff when i first stop eating salt and seaweed but it soon went. now i enjoy celery as a mono snack and can really appreciate the flavours.
100% salt and seaweed free since 9/07.

when I start cutting them up my hands get really itchy. I was trying to make a v8 juice for like 4 days in a row and my energy just plummeted. I figure I might aswell avoid them for now until I clean out more.

it's not strictly 811, but since RawGreenGoddess does, I decided to try too, and I've been doing green juices in the morning - celery, cucumber and spinach. very nice. salty, fresh, light, green tasting.

Spinach is also pretty high in sodium. Lettuce has sodium too, to a lesser degree.

Of all fruits (that I have data available), Honeydew is the most high in salts.
The saltiness between batches seem to vary, and sometimes the ripe melon tastes incredibly salty, especially the softest part right by the seeds.
This may be far-fetched, but maybe blending/juicing the softest parts of a honeydew (w/o the seeds) would give desireable results. Sometimes the saltiness varies between batches and I have never tried them blended/juiced, so cannot really say if they make a salty tasting drink.
