Same for tomato.

Maybe you should drink more water TP

Tomatos - very watery flavor without salt, however if its really good one, flavor is amazing, so refreshing. Not always but mostly I use a pinch of salt on those on sandwiches.

Baked makes for a tighter spud w/ superior internal gelatinization of the starches.

It may be the boiling which dilutes the salty flav from the outer edges.

boiling which dilutes

Boiling leaches out flavor, nutrients, and who know what else. Sometimes it makes sense, but generally other techniques are preferable.
