A Fool’s Blog: About Cooking & Acronyms

Disclaimer: I am passionate about good food and wordplay.

This blog entry is about S.A.L.T. — Sanity Awareness in Literary Territory. Or I just wanted the initials to spell out “Salt” because of reasons I’ll explain later.

This describes me so well — a fantastic gift by two great friends

Let’s start with NaCl —Sodium Chloride or simply, Salt. Salt is the most basic of spices. It might be heresy to even call it a “spice”. Forgive me, oh chefs, for I am merely making a point here.

Salt is a flavour enhancer. Whatever you use to spice up your food, salt will enhance that flavour. Be careful however, use in moderation.
Too much salt leads to a higher blood pressure. It’s an addicting substance.

Don’t believe me? Look at Fast Food. It’s salty, it’s fatty. Both things that make us feel good. Fast Food is a sort of guilty pleasure (yes I’m writing this hungry, could you tell?). And that’s the key — guilty. Because our brain tells us “OI YA GIT! You’ll be fat(ter) if you keep eating that shit”.

Guess what, our brain is right! Anything in too high doses can kill us. Yes, even salad. You could choke on it or something. Moderation is the key.

Too much moderation is boring, obvious and depressing? YES OF COURSE IT IS. Life is made of ups and downs. You cannot enjoy the ups if you don’t experience the downs. We’re that simple creatures at the end of the day.

In short, treat yo self. Worry less and you’ll be happier.

Hence, the acronym at the start. Get it out of your system and it’ll feel better.

Hi, I’m Mitja, just a dude with a new email for feedback because fuck it, why not write something since life has a funny side to it these days.

Use the link above, send me your thoughts on the writing, the good, the bad, even the worse. Evil need not apply. We all need a laugh. I just come with humour and now writing, because I don’t care if its not funny to you. It is to me! Welcome to my Fool’s Blog. Hope you enjoy!
