This will make TMEW VERY happy!

And of course, make all those Nanny State "anti-salters" like Michele Obama and NYC Mayor Bloomberg rather sad – one less thing that they can hector us about (even as they use tons of it themselves): For decades, policy makers have tried and failed to get Americans to eat less salt.
