They're going after the salt, folks

First it was trans fats, then it was calorie counts, now it's the salt:

This does seem a little ambitious. But, then again, who knows how much of what is actually in the food we eat. Afterall, people used to put chalk and ammonia in spoiled milk to make it seem fresh; and, no one could figure out why kids were dying / developing massive health problems and deformities.

If they really get the legislation together, it's probably a good idea. You can always add more salt to your own dish in a restaurant if you want.

No, no, no. I refused to believe that a sensible-to-large amount of salt, provided you're not absolutely covering the food in it as per greasy chips, is anything but healthy for you. More people, I'm convinced, would eat healthy veggies if they were steamed with just a hint of salt and olive oil, two "dangerous" foods!
