stop adding this shit to your food. no seriously, you don't

You need salt to live faggot.

The amount of salt you need to live is extremely low in comparison to what we consume. Like, a few hundred milligrams a day is probably still too much.

Salt is also like sugar in the way you've probably fucked your sensitivity to it by consuming it in massive amounts every day. Stop using so much and your taste will adjust to where you don't need so much.

Why when I can just eat what feels right?

Besides, I wouldn't crave what isnt good for me.

Sorry you hate flavor faggot

Salt literally helped us colonize the world. Iodized salt helps pastoral communities not get goiters since they don't eat enough seafood to naturally acquire iodine. You are a fucking retard and need to stay off the internet and read a goddamned book.

Sauerkraut.

I agree with you but salt is probably among the last few things even a health conscious individual would remove from his diet

When we're eating processed garbage, saturated fats and straight up cancerogenic foods I don't see why we should focus on salt of all things

salt amplifies the flavour of practically everything... completely cutting it out would be such a loss for taste *shrug*

I love when people try to sound smart but they have no idea what the fuck they're talking about, so they say "like" and "probably."

As one anon mentioned with sauerkraut any non-canned meat for curing or fermented vegetables, both processes necessary for unrefrigerated preservation, require salt. I'm not going to give up that skill.

Having said that, highly processed mass produced corporate food uses sodium without rhyme or reason. There is no justification for canned goods to have sodium added. The preservation is from the pressurized canning method, not sodium. Please explain that. If you want a boogeyman, look no further.

The homecook adding a dash of salt to his dish prepared with fresh ingredients isn't the issue. That does not cause the problem.

This. Sodium Benzoate is in practically everything that comes in a box or a can. It's easy to cut it out.

For real yo!
I quit using salt and started using this instead. Everything tastes really good with 60% less sodium!

I would rather kill myself than not die because of salt.

Stir fried veggies.

>>8873436
A lot of ingredients already contain sodium, though....

My mother cooked lowsalt my whole life, and I can tell you salt is nice and improves almost any main dish

Holy fucking shit. I'm 6' 300 lbs, I have morbidly obese parents with worse BMIs than I have.
>I wouldn't crave what isn't good for me.
That is the FATTEST thing I've heard ANYBODY say in my life. I'm writing that one down.

>>8873427

while i agree that we use way too much salt, especially useless salt like to pasta water, or excessive salt like on fries

removing salt is nonsense and a lot of things taste like shit without a little salt to bring out flavors

but there's generally plenty used in the preparation of the food, i cant remember the last time i used a salt shaker

>>8873427
Salt cod.
Salt cod would be ruined without salt.

you're not salting the water right then

>>8873747

salt in pizza sauce then

the average pizza probably has more salt in its tomato sauce than in the sausage or pepperoni, and if you make the sauce with like a quarter the amount that your average can of tomato 'sauce' (unseasoned, except for the salt, im not talking about prego or whatever) or a recipe tells you, it tastes almost exactly the same while not giving you an extra 50% your RDA sodium in each slice

Salt pork, for one.

Truth. Salt opens up flavors. Try drinking broth without salt. It is completely bland and flavorless

>>8873427
Scrambled eggs.

No.

There's literally nothing wrong with salt
