This answer is if your talking about the Sea:

As water from rivers flow into the sea, the water picks up tiny traces of mineral salt from the rocks and all of the water gets channelled into the sea.

as the sea water evaporates, the water goes but the salt in the water stays, so the sea always gets saltier and saltier and saltier. unless the ice in south/north pole melts.

Although there are many ways to add salt after creation of an item, this question asks how salt gets in food prior to cooking. The way in which salt naturally gets into food is through diet. Animals take in food that has salt and therefore have salt themselves. This is also true for plants as well with salt coming from the ground with other minerals.

Air contain salt aerosols in salt mines and near sea/lake/ocean saline waters.
