These posts are why white people are accused of not seasoning their food.

So you serve bland food at home I assume?
DP why would anything be blamed? If you add salt while cooking it does little in terms of taste. Add a small amount of finishing salts when the plate is served and it increase the favors. I really do not need heavily salted rice or risotto because you really do not taste the salt.
You cannot tell the difference between rice prepared "heavily" salted and rice prepared unsalted?
You can't be serious.

I always feel bad for people who hate salt. Their life must be so bland. It helps enhance and balance flavor. Literally everything benefits from a bit of salt.
A bit of salt, sure. The amount of salt in a typical restaurant meal, no thanks. I’m always thirsty for a day afterward. Even with fine dining.
What fine dining restaurants are too salty for you and what are you ordering?
PP here. My favorite restaurant is Blacksalt (seafood). And it doesn’t taste salty while I’m there. But later in the evening I’ll be unusually thirsty, often next day too. Also happens with Asian food, pizza, most places I eat out really.
Yep same experience at Black Salt. I do not know how people who eat out all the time do it.
I agree. I will say I was in Belgium recently and was concerned about it due to eating out every single meal which is usually going to make me feel like I have salt overload, and I was totally fine. The meals were a mixture of bland and well-seasoned. Maybe the bland ones balanced out the well-seasoned ones.

“Season as you go” is a basic tenant of cooking well.

Really? I eat out a fair amount and I don't feel that way. When I eat out a lot in a short period I feel bloated but that's because I'm eating more food than usual so I am actually putting on weight - I'm sure it's some more salt, too, but really it's all the extra calories.
I truly cannot imagine going to a restaurant and asking for eggs with no salt. It sounds so dreary. Why go out?
I mean, I don’t ask for eggs with no salt. But I do eat at home more than I used to (where I do still use salt!) because I dislike feeling thirsty all night and the next day. If the food is good enough I’m still happy to eat out and suffer the consequences.
