Whenever i get sick, eating apples helps take away that awful feeling when you're sick in bed. My mother would give me sliced apples and i would dab it in salt. for me and my family, it's a perfect food combination. but when i told about in school, my friends laughed and said that's just plain weird. i was surprised that not everyone does this. i found out that there are very few people i know aside from my family who eats apples with salt.
how about you? do you eat apples with salt too? =)

hi madmarycash14... I just hear it from you. I think it's freak because apple taste sweet so it doesnt need salt to combined. But, after you add salt, how does it taste? Fruit with additional salt suitable for young manggoes and pineaples, it make fruit taste better

I've never eaten apples with salt before. Besides eating them because they taste good and are god for you and eating them when your stomach is upset. Is there a reason why they are eaten with salt?

No, I have not tried this. I don't know whether adding salt to the apple will make the apple more tasty, but I can't eat apple with salt. I used to cut the apple in to pieces and add honey to the pieces and eat them. This time I will try eating the apple with the salt.

When the apple is a bit sour, yes, I eat it with a bit of salt. We Filipinos eat anything sour with salt or anything salty. I once dipped slices of green apple in patis (salty fish sauce) and I ate some with bagoong (salty shrimp paste). It was weird but it was really good!

That's interesting 
But come to think of it, the apples that we have here can be a little sour and I like to put a little salt in any food that tastes sour -- pineapple, green mangoes, etc. I think I will have to try apple with salt one of these days.
By the way, I like eating apple with cheese.
Have a nice day!

I tried that once too and it is delicious. 
I never thought that it would taste like that, so once in a while I do that.. But I have not done that recently. 
I shall try it again, it's just very delicious..

Hi madmarycash14, I eat apple with salt all the time. I am not a big fan of apple but whenever i eat apple, i sprinkle some salt over it after cutting it into pieces. I also like eat vanilla ice cream and roasted apple as dessert. My hubby needs apple everyday because he always on the run. Sometimes he relies on single apple for his breakfast. He doesn't like salt on apple though!

i've never tried it but I do eat watermelon and pineapple with salt. It makes the fruit taste juicier.

Hi. madmarycash14. Welcome to myLot! Yes, I always eat my apples with salt as well. I use lite salt onto my apples. My kids loves them this way too. I have been eating apples of every kind and color with lite salt on it for a very long time. It is very delicious too. I don't think that eating apples with salt on it is weird, I think that it is very unique.

Yeah that is the first time I heard of that habit. I only know how to eat unpeeled apples but not with any other condiments.
