LJI Salty

[deza]

There is a very old tale of a king who had three daughters. He asked them one day how much they loved him.
"More than life," said the eldest.
"More than words," said the next.
"More than meat loves salt," said the youngest, the king's favorite child.The king did not understand this response and was greatly insulted that his favorite daughter did

Pretty clever meditation on the concept. I think it takes a whole lot of caring to be quite so salty, to use the pejorative of that word.

Interesting musings. The last line made me smile.

I especially enjoyed the explanation on the chemical workings of salt. I didn't know that eating potato chips could make me a better person, but now I have a metaphysical reason to add to gluttony. If salt can make me an enhanced version of myself, I wonder what chocolate can do?
