Did you know that salt enhances and even alters the flavor of other foods? For instance, an avocado can be downright bland but add a little salt and the flavor is suddenly amazing. Same goes for beans or potatoes. Eating salty foods can also mellow out the flavor of a robust red wine and a Bloody Mary is not complete without a rim coated in celery salt. As with everything, you must find a balance, and sometimes, you just need a salty snack. Salt is a necessary electrolyte after all and helps keep your body hydrated. I suggest trying these Potato Chips with Blue Cheese Dressing and a salty drink to go with it, such as a Salty Dog with Bacon Vodka. The link also has a recipe for making your own bacon vodka. Wah!? Sounds either scary or totally amaze-balls! Would you dare try it out?
