Ahhh good to hear that went well Sarge!

I was just reading the far side thread yesterday and heard you mention the trip!

Rock and Roll always wins mate

So glad it went well.  Be healthy and avoid table salt - use sea salt.  It doesn't have glass in it.

Amaterasu, you are right about avoiding the salt. Long term studies show that the less salt consumed, the less blood pressure and heart problems in we humans. This can be found on internet search.

Yes, these days a lot of people seem to prefer 'sea salt", but it does not really make a health difference, as one person's statement was "all salt is sea salt". We have sea salt in the cabinet too.

I will paste here what a Mayo Clinic person says about salt, just FYI for all:

*****************************************************************
Question:

Sea salt vs. table salt: Which is healthier?
Is sea salt better for your health than table salt?

Answer
from Katherine Zeratsky, R.D., L.D.

Nutritionist with Mayo Clinic

No. Sea salt and table salt have the same basic nutritional value, despite the fact that sea salt is often marketed as a more natural and healthy alternative. The real differences between sea salt and table salt are in their taste, texture and processing, not their chemical makeup.

Sea salt is produced through evaporation of seawater, usually with little processing, which leaves behind certain trace minerals and elements depending on its water source. The minerals add flavor and color to sea salt, which also comes in a variety of coarseness levels.

Table salt is mined from underground salt deposits. Table salt is more heavily processed to eliminate minerals and usually contains an additive to prevent clumping. Most table salt also has added iodine, an essential nutrient that's lacking in naturally occurring sea salt.

By weight, sea salt and table salt contain the same amount of sodium chloride. Your body needs only a very tiny amount of salt to stay healthy. Most people get far too much — mostly from processed foods. So regardless of which type of salt you prefer, use a light hand with the saltshaker. And limit total sodium to less than 2,300 milligrams a day — or 1,500 milligrams if you're age 51 or older, or if you are black, or if you have high blood pressure, diabetes or chronic kidney disease.

Well guys, I live in south Louisiana and you can't help but have salt in something. Crawfish, Shrimp, Craps, Etouffie, Shrimp Creole. I do my part and forgo the fried stuff and go with bake or grilled. AAAeeeeee

Sgt.Rocknroll, I know I shouldn't, but I just have to say this - - you did mention salt in something I am totally unfamilar with , on the dinner plate!! Maybe you can make a little correction/"modify" to fix that - looks like something I would do, but it is pretty funny IMO!!

Yum, Yum, --- some of that Louisana cooking is really good! One of my problems is, I don't do spicy, as in "HOT", and some spicy is what Cajun cooking is all about - - I think!

[Sgt.Rocknroll]

I've lived here all my life and i don't do 'hot' either. You can have spicey and not be hot. Use a little les ls cayenne and you're fine. I have some great receipes.

Well then, let's ask zorgon to take note - it is obvious we need a specific place for you, and everyone, to post all of those gooooooooooooooooooddd recipes!! Yes! Yes! Yes!

Maybe a Cooking/Recipe Board, under "General"?

Might even make some of the "aliens" happy! 

I do like "GOOD" food - don't we all!
