Salt

I know we are supposed to be the salt of the earth, but have you eaten in a restaurant lately?  We ate at Applebee's the other night and the tomato basil soup was so salty I couldn't eat it.  Then the seasoning on the fish was so spicy I could barely eat that.  An hour later, I had a headache.  I don't know what seasonings they use in restaurants, but I am getting very picky about where I go and what I eat.  They say no MSG but there are other forms of MSG that people don't know about.  We are supposed to have less than 1,000 mg a day of salt; I am sure a meal at most restaurants have over that for ONE meal.  I'm not whining here....just saying.....Do you know what I mean??
