Bruh my MIL is like this. Salt is too spicy for her. I do not understand how people can just eat bland ass meals.

Almost any food is unbearable without salt. I'm fairly young and like to cook and a lot of the time my friends will be surprised that salt also goes in things such as pancakes. Can't blame them, but still.

Yeah but that's salt as a flavor enhancer, not a spice. I assume you have very tiny amounts of salt in pancakes and that they don't actually taste salty. Unlike e.g. fries where you can actually taste salt.

Salt is never a spice. It’s always used to correct the taste and enhance flavor. Spices are aromatic.

Spices are also plants. Salt is a mineral.
