Uh, yeah, I think a five year old would get that. Things that one craves taste quite good when they finally hit one's taste buds.
But this:
> Salt really only tastes good when you need salt.
Logically implies that when a person does not need salt, salt does not taste good to that person.

- _Tev 8y agoAnecdotally: this works for me. It is easy to eat without much salt (and sometimes even avoid salty food) when I don't crave it. I do crave it often though, especially when I exercise more or don't eat much for longer time periods. I also drink a lot of water.
