I got a curry delivered tonight, and when I tasted one of the dishes (lamb shatkora, since you ask), I immediately thought ooh, that’s nice, and then a few mouthfuls later I realised that actually, it was badly over-salted.
And that in fact they were the same thing: my brain interpreted salt as ‘tastiness’, even though it was so salty that I threw most of it away.
No wonder the food we eat is unhealthy, when we are so easily fooled by salt and sugar and fat.
…mmmm, salt and sugar and fat.
