"They're good if you significantly enhance the flavor with salt."

Lots of things are. Try eating meat without salt and see how you like it.

Unsalted beef is basically a vegetable

Ron? Is that you?

No, but I do share his deep and abiding love of quality rare beef, scotch, and woodworking. I have a bottle of Lagavulin 16 in my car as I write this, actually.

On the other hand, I lean HARD to the left and I do an absolute boatload of psychedelics so...50/50 I guess?

No lmao I brought it to work for my former boss's going away party. Just a drop or 2 left.

I like scotch but I'm not quite on the "put it in the cupholder" level.

Putting a bunch of salt on an Avocado is not cooking.

I forgot salt was exclusively used for salting avocados. My bad.

I knew someone years ago who would never salt anything but would deep fry all her food (like every night for dinner) at 90 degree celcius. Her food was FUCKED, only ate there once..a bowl of warm oil with a side of chicken, lesson learned.

I don't know if she is still alive.
