In general it might scrape in as a PTTGOYN, where as when you have cooked the food, it scrapes into the realms of justifying throwing someone down the stairs. Talking about in restaurants. Doesn’t ‘scrape’ as a PTTGOYN all such things are personal. Can’t understand how you don’t get the that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarley Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 People who add salt to the food on their plate before tasting it. Its a habit they can't break. They are salt addicts On a similar theme, we had some friends across for a BBQ at the weekend. Their kids asked if I had any BBQ sauce, I said no just HP sauce. I then explained that it wasn't like BBQ sauce that it was bitter, tangy, different. Both of them covered their entire plate with sauce. First bite spat it back out, don't like it. Why didn't you try it first before wasting all that food you little shits was what I should have said instead of oh ok I'll cook some more sausages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not about salt consumption it’s about folk adding salt before knowing if it’s needed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A remnant of pre-1990s when food was bland and overcooked and you needed to add salt and pepper to give it any flavour. It's no longer the case but older people still have the habit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which can broadly be regarded as consumption.... My point was merely that its so much worse if you have gone to the effort of making someone a meal and they do it.

If someone is served food that most of us would regard as very salty, tastes it then still adds more then it’s about personal consumption. If they add the salt before tasting the food it’s not about personal consumption. Edited March 15, 2018 by Granny Danger 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wasn't shouting at me at the dinner table for putting too much salt on my food, he was going on about me using too much butter on my bread. "Have you any idea how much butter costs," he would bellow . I used to take a delight in sprinkling salt on my bread and butter which invariably sent him into paroxysms of rage.

Although judgemental looks from hosts or waiters when you add it after tasting are just as bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
