As an experiment, I haven't been using any salt on my food for the past two weeks. Well, last night I had a craving for fried chicken, so I asked the man to stop at Popeyes. Whoa, Nelly, was that shit salty. It's amazing to me how fast my taste buds adapted to no salt. And it's amazing to me that fast food is so freaking salty. I mean, I already know it is, but this experiment really highlighted just how salty it is.
Yeah it's way overused when you eat oat in most places or get any packaged food. I use it pretty sparingly when I cook. As kids my brother would make it look like it snowed on his burgers, it was disgusting
I never use it in cooking, you can't tell the difference.

On meat/fish I will use a salt and pepper mix before I grill it. More pepper than salt. Other than that I dont use it. My wife come from a culture that uses a lot of salt so I've bent a little if I'm making rice but have mostly stopped eating rice. I'm down to maybe 1 at most 2 times a week as opposed to my former 7 days a week.

Holy shit can my wife pour on the salt. I thought I used a lot but she has me beat.

My mother was never a good cook, but one thing always stuck out with me. She overloaded food with salt while cooking it, which makes it ten times worse. I remember gagging a lot as a kid because it was so bad.

In a fairly serious chat, Ni said she felt like someone else was gaslighting her. I'd like some Not a Dick points for not reacting as I wanted to. "Gaslighting you? What an *insane* thing to say."

She would have known I was joking, but it's still a dick move.

I don't know the science behind this, but I've cured the common cold a few times by getting drunk. I'm not sure it would work with the flu, but hope you feel better!

My mom was the opposite, although not a good cook she didnt use salt really. Her lack of cooking skill seems to have inspired 3 of her 4 children to become at least pretty good cooks. We at least like to cook, she saw it more as a thing that needed to be done

Lately random people have been striking up wiers conversations with me. Like today I'm buying a six pack. This guy just hanging out in the store asks "Is that alcohol?" I say yeah its beer. He then says "You know what would be good? If they combined caffeine and alcohol." He then keeps going on about it as I walk out the store. I must be getting soft because in the past I've been told I look unapproachable.
