Asalted?

Salt often improves the 'taste' of food. Too much, however, can elevate blood pressure and is linked to other medical risks. The UK government, consequently recommends that individuals consume no more than 3g of salt per day. Worryingly, 50% of UK children's restaurant main meals, have at least half the daily salt quota (https://www.theguardian.com/society/article/2024/may/14/third-childrens-restaurant-meals-exceed-salt-target-salt-target). Even worse, more than a third of child's main restaurant meals in the UK, exceed the government's entire daily salt target. The worst offenders are said to be Gourmet Burger Kitchen; Wetherspoons and Prezzo. Salt cruets are even left on tables, allowing children to add more sodium chloride. It's almost as if children are being 'programmed', to eat unhealthily?
