So I was thinking about pretzels, how they're really just a salt delivery system. Pretzels are salt licks for people. And then I started thinking about salt. Salt is huge. I'm thinking of the salt trade in North Africa; the role of salt in the Indian Independence Movement; the scene in The Crucible, where John Proctor tastes his wife's stew and, grimacing, adds a pinch of salt. And then I come across this.
See? Salt is huge.

Haha, if I eat pretzels I get the kind without salt.
I am the only person who doesn't like salt.
Those salt lick cow artists are cool
Pretzels without salt?! Now I've heard everything.
:)
Sometimes you can find pretzels with sesame seeds instead of salt. But I hate those.
Yesterday I went over to my neighbor's and she had strewn salt all over the cracks in her sidewalk. I thought she was trying to keep witches away or something but she said it keeps weeds from growing. We'll see.
I betcha it works. And if not, at least she won't be bothered by witches.
