My wife and I eat a low salt diet. We only add salt at the table and then very small amounts. Last night we had some left over ham stew (left over ham from easter, and root vegetables). We also had a vegan greens dish. The contrast was amazing. The salt in the ham was overwhelming. I told my wife about year ago when I stopped using salt when cooking that I bought a frozen Stouffer's Creamed Spinach and couldn't finish it because of all the salt.

I guess people get used to anything.
