Salty or Sweet

I have a friend who would always choose salty things over sweet things. I prefer the sweets over the salt (unless of course it is salty and sweet together)! How about you? Which is your preference? Salty or sweet and why?

I love my salt but I also love my sweets. One of my favorite snacks is a hostess chocolate cupcake with a few potato chips, the 2 flavors together are amazing. Of course I can't have them to often, but they are one way I treat myself.

I really like having salty combined with sweet. Rich, Sweet ice-cream is all the better with salty nuts sprinkled on it... pretzels covered in sweet yogurt or chocolate is also tempting. Usually if I have a overly sweet desert I find myself quickly craving something salty. Must be why I like Resees peanut butter cups so much!

I also love salt and sweet together. If I had to chose, it would be tough sometimes, but more likely sweets. I usually pick sweets that has some salt in it - like peanut butter and chocolate :p

My preference depends on what I am going to eat. I like my dinner, lunch to be salty. But I like my desert to be sweet. When enjoying snack, sometimes I like salty food, sometimes I like it to be sweet. However, I can't take in too much sweet food because my doctor tells me to stop consuming sugar rich foods. He says I am over weight and I need to eat food with less flavor. My kidney may malfunction if I continue to eat foods that are highly seasoned. So for the sake of my health I need to eat food with as little taste as possible.

Oh my! Take care of your kidneys! These are most important to health. I found if I eat some peanut butter on raisin toast - it usually satisfies my sweet desire and keeps me feeling full and satisfied for a long time.

There are days that I prefer salty foods, some days I like sweet foods. I guess, it depends on my mood. But every meal, i love to have a good desert.

I prefer salty for the foods but for the dessert,i like sweet because for the taste of the food,if it's sweet,i can't eat it because my feeling is the food have to taste like salty or sour or spicy. I can eat it. The dessert have to sweet because it isn't the food so haven't same taste from the food.

Watch out for your blood pressure as the salt is a bit dangerous in too large quantities!
