I think salt is definitely an acquired taste (like sugar in tea) you crave what you get used to. I rarely add salt to food and really do notice if salt has bee added.

Thank you so much Couldn’t agree more.
It’s an acquired taste.
So we miss it when we realise that food is less salty.

I often marvel at people who salt food before tasting it, as though it’s an automatic movement before raising their fork. More a habit than an acquired taste, I think.

On Saturday, we dip a piece of challah in salt to show our faith in the eternity of life because salt is the only natural substance that doesn’t spoil or rot, yet prevents food from spoiling or rotting.
Having said that, I agree with you, dear Dr Sridhar, regarding the dangers of salt to our health.
