My mind, she is blown

I am probably the last person on the planet to discover that if you ask, fast food restaurants will give you your french fries WITHOUT the metric fuckton of salt they usually bury the poor things in

Probably came from asking for cheeseburgers without the bun when I was little and having the employees look at me like I was Damien. But still.

Funny to think, with the advent of Atkins diets going mega, you could've asked for exactly that in a fast-food restaurant in NYC recently and nobody would've batted an eyelid.

Good to hear though. (The mayoralty in NYC has been putting out PSAs warning folks of added sodium in pre-prepared foods, so obviously the Too Much Salt=Bad message is getting about.)

I definitely thought about that when the whole Atkins thing went ballistic: hey, I wasn't annoying; I was just thirty years ahead of my time! :)

I love your icon.

See, I usually want extra salt on my chips when I'm at McDonalds, which made it upsetting to find you guys don't have those little bags of salt in America.

We do. Sometimes you have to ask for them.

It's never enough salt for me!
