I think Asian food in general is very salty due to so many fermented and preserved foods that are utilized as ingredients.

To be fair... The long term effect of dietary sodium on blood pressure is a non issue unless you're genetically predisposed or have other risk factors. Most people I run into should be salting their foods more, especially in the summer.


But still, that sounds like a revolting amount of salt...

One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen, Sixteen, Seventeen, Eighteen, Nineteen, Twenty... Yeah that seems about right.

Salt has been the traditional preservative for millennia but today we have far more food options available to us, especially in the "first world".

“These economic royalists complain that we seek to overthrow the institutions of America. What they really complain of is that we seek to take away their power."
He paused for a moment, then thundered, “Our allegiance to American institutions requires the overthrow of this kind of power!”
“In vain,” Roosevelt said, “they seek to hide behind the Flag and the Constitution. In their blindness they forget what the Flag and the Constitution stand for. Now, as always, they stand for democracy, not tyranny; for freedom, not subjection; and against a dictatorship by mob rule and the over-privileged alike.”
- Franklin Roosevelt 1933
