Oso planning to go pro
My guess that any Scooper that fancies him/herself as a serious cook already uses more salt than you probably care for.
What’s worse? Salt or refined carbs?I’ll go with carbs for worse.
Neither. If you're a healthy adult, all is fine. Only thing that matters is calories in, calories out

It would be easier and better to just have decent kosher salt and a well-stocked spice drawer.
For weight gain/loss, not for overall nutrition.
Probably needs to support his butt buddy penzey.
Por que no los dos?
Unfortunately, the RN isn't into threesomes, hey?
Go fer it.
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
Bingo. I guarantee that good restaurants don’t use 5x (“conservatively” lol) the salt I use. Muggsy, it’s clear you like a very light touch with the salt to season your food. There is nothing wrong with your preference. But it’s just that…a preference. And I’d venture a guess that your preference is significantly different than most. That’s why “everyone” you’re with seems to enjoy their food even though you think it’s way over salted. I strongly suspect that “everyone” you’re with would be reaching for the salt shaker if the food was exactly to your liking. Unfortunately, no amount of salt from the shaker will fix food that isn’t adequately seasoned during cooking. Most chefs aren’t idiots (and presumably neither are your dining companions). They’re trying to make food that appeals to their customers’ tastes. Your tastes are clearly different than most. And that’s OK. You just have to deal with the inconvenience that most food prepared in restaurants isn’t tailored to your palette.
We'll agree to disagree. I like plenty of salt and use it generously. What I don't like is 10 vats of it on my food. As for everyone has different tastes? Yes but that's not the issue here. People conform with all sorts of things including food, restaurants, etc. Behavioral psychologists have actually studied this and done a number of tests. I would encourage you to read Predictably Irrational by Dan Ariely. The fact of the matter is when the average person (who is a solid cook) prepares dishes at home, dishes they make that are usually better than most restaurants, they probably use anywhere from 1/5 to 1/10 the amount of salt. I don't like light salt, I like the right portion of salt depending on the dish.
You're talking out of your a$$ Muggsy
No I'm not. Maybe your friends and family don't know how to cook? There are many great restaurants but there are a ton more that are mediocre or crap.
Nothin' bedded dan a hare grabbin', bitch slappin', pissin' match 'bout salt on a Wednesday mornin', aina?
