The salt hypertension issue is an interesting one. 80% of the sodium we eat is added by the manufacturer. The rest is split between naturally occurring sodium and salt we add in the form of salt, soy sauce, olives, or other salty condiments.

Oh salt, why do you make bad-for-me gross-tasting when not completely tasteless corporate-yuk taste almost edible? You are truly a miracle product to hold so much power, the power to make huge foodcorp empires out of tasteless corporate yuck. Oh salt, we need you, but then you turn on us like this!

And Cdn sodium numbers are worse than those, worse even in the same chain, among the worst in the world! Who knew? I rarely eat out.

I am a vegetarian and I worked for Denny’s when I was a senior in high school. I knew they were not good food then, but I was 19.

Now I have left meat behind, as well as table sugar, but I admit I like my salt. But for people so add it without our knowledge is just plain wrong.

You can purcahse things that are low-fat, low-sugar and even fat-free and sugar-free. But rarely if ever can you purcahse something that is low sodium or sodium free. Why? Because no one would buy it. We are a nation that is addicted to sugar, fat and salt. And the big industries are doing their darndest to get us and keep us hooked.

I think they are winning, but not in this house.
