Since I had some problems a couple of years ago and cut down on salt I've discovered many new spices to enhance foods. If I want/need to salt foods I'll use a good quality sea salt. BUT, that doesn't mean I want or need "big brother" telling me what to do.
When I heard this report yesterday I had two thoughts. One, this is exactly the type of thing that will happen if the debacle known as the health care bill is passed. Two, I don't know Chef Penn...but I kept imagining this voice in the back of my head telling the government in all kinds of colorful ways what they could do with their legislature.
Back to the article, the dims really don't care what the people who put them into office want...which is exactly why it is time to clean house and to keep doing so until the message is heard.
