The Salt Nazis are Coming ...

SEE HERE The mantra that salt is bad for you is mostly bunk. I was reading a medical site that presented technical information that showed that eating too much salt had the breathtaking effect of increasing your blood pressure, at worst, about 1 mm of mercury. So don't get all compulsed over it. It does help you retain water and few Americans are in any danger from not getting enough, but don't kid yourself ... getting too much isn't much of a danger either. So why are the salt Nazis gearing up to restrict salt? Because they can. Tyranny is something that is addictive.
