Overdose salty is more accurate!!

How can we get the salty taste out of our taste buds? We have brushed, drank a lot of water to no avail.....

blech...I don't eat a lot of salt anyway....

Yours truly Salt OD!!

4. This way I eat at home most of the time.
I can really taste the salt when I go out.

7. I use fresh herbs from garden.
One can grow herbs in pots if you don't have a yard.

Food taste really good with herbs instead of salt.

9. Just try different herbs to see you what you lilke.
I just can't eat canned food anymore.

Once you get away from salt, food taste better.

12. Actually it's a little Chinese place we go to
99% of the time the "Cracked Black Pepper deep fried shrimp", is really amazing. I think they may have gotten the shakers mixed up or something.....

almost done recovering...sigh..
