Paula Deen Is Trying to Kill Us, Part 5: Butter, Mayo, Whiz Cheese Spread
Stifle! you health insurance company pandering accolytes of the "Healthy Food Ad Nauseum." Even the insurance companies know that you can't live forever--if they could MAKE you they WOULD!--that would be just yet MORE money for nothing for them-- which their true business--getting ever more money out of people for less and less benefit.
After seeing the mess that the economy of this country is in, (thanks be to W), seeing the wars that this country is currently in--TWO (thanks be to W), seeing the country I love engaged in torture of prisoners (thanks be to W), seeing a Nobel Prize winning leader of our country castigated on national TV for caring about the "environment," all of which I have no say in.
I DO NOT CARE ANYMORE! I would rather spend an artery closing HOUR with someone of the character and personality of Paula Deen than even one minute with some cereal "flake" of a health nut/fanatic. We CANNOT live forever--period. And Ilike what I like--and I'm gonna eat it too--no more apologies!
If my arteries clog and so on--so be it! I will have enjoyed the time I had eating things that I LIKED--not what I was TOLD to like by those only interested in the "political correctness" of preserving the bottom line of health insurance companies.

One thing that I've not seen mentioned here is that everyone has a taste for salt according to the level of salt to which they've become accustomed.
If one eats very little salt then their taste for salt will be very light.
Those whom are accustomed to more salt on their food will find the lighter salting to be too little salt.
Your "brightening" is another man's over-salting. Or put another way, adequate salting is in the mouth of the beholder!!--LOL
I've likewise seen no mention of the tendencies to use sugar in dishes which should not have sugar. I know I'm speaking of mostly processed foods, but I've seen recipes call for sugar when the dish is one I would not even want to taste sweet AT ALL!
As abused as salt may be, sugar is equally as overdone--again due to the varying level between humans accustomed intake.
No one on here must have kids--or this would surely have been mentioned before now. When raising my 2 kids, one had to have more sugar than me or my son to consider a dish to be "sweet." My son's "sweet-tooth" was higher than mine but lower than his sister's.
So what it all comes down to is........if you want to consume less salt, then you must "train" your palate to consider something with less salt to be "salty." Then you become accustomed to the lower level of saltiness. Same/Same with sugar. You will like what you eat--if you eat foods with more salt/sugar then you will "oversalt/sugar" according to others.
