This is OT in some ways but relevant in others...
A couple of years ago DH & I were out of town and ate at Chain restaurant...well we got their 'special fries' with our orders...Couldn't touch them! Tasted like PURE SALT! Might've just shoved spoonsfulls of salt down our throats? As a result, now I just order mashed or any appealing vegie other than squash...most places don't know how to cook it well. Sigh.
Another thing? Go to the grocery store and look at the salt contents of the same brand of Tomato Juice, but in the different size cans...if you can compare the 6, 10 and 30 odd ounce sizes, well, it can be a SALT experience! The %'s of salt per serving vary VERY widely. Scary but true?

Curious that site and your quote, are too true. Isn't it the same for sugars and the 'substitutes or alternatives' as well?

Melody, Yes you take super care of Alan, BUT, when is he going to take on the responsibility of taking care for himself? Goodness forbid, but if anything happened to you, well he would be totally helpless! Train him, to at least try? Please?

I do cook lo to no salt, adding only usually at the end to taste. I find that there's enuf salts added to canned or some prepared goods to keep me 'salty' enuf for quite a while! All the extra hidden salts as well...When you really look for them, you can find them. Next, I suppose we'll be asking where the SALT came from? Realities intrude. Melody, You do inspire me to cook more fresh, more often. For that you are a gem! Have you checked out D-Life.com's recipies? Some of them are good and EASY! They are criteria that are key in my cooking. Hugs to all! - j
