What kinds of food so you add salt to at the table, on your plate, from the salt shaker?

The only things I can think of are eggs, tomato and corn on cob. Probably baked potato, too, but it's OK without salt.

I eat the hearts of things like cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, etc., dipped in salt, but that's a stand-up snack, not something I eat as a part of a meal.

Oh, man. I salt everything. Seriously, nearly everything. Salad, steak, chicken, eggs, vegetables, fish. I have my own personal salt shaker.
I know, it’s not a good habit.

Nothing except fries/potatoes (and then just a little bit)

just about everything. I eat with a fork in one hand and salt shaker in the other. I even need a pinch of salt in the water when I cook oatmeal.

Don't worry, my BP is fine.

I actually like to sprinkle chicken with a coarser salt after it's cooked and on a plate. I make my own dry rubs and marinades and don't use too much, as to not overpower the other spices. That final touch on the outside of the chicken (with or without skin) makes it perfect. It has to be scalding hot though, so that the salt kind of sticks to it.

My uncle Bill used to open a bag of potato chips, and pour the salt in! I still can't believe it to this day.

I, on the other hand have basically lost my taste for salt. I'll salt a few things, but my taste buds have really changed in the last couple of years.

Nothing at all. We season our food before it goes to the table.

Only potatoes that have not been salted during cooking. Unsalted potatoes are just too bland.

I never salt anything else, ever. Not even popcorn.
