I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

ita, could you swallow salt tablets?

How do you feel about cold cuts or hot dogs, ita? They're pretty high in sodium.

Also, anything with soy sauce.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

How do you feel about canned soup?

It's disgusting and salty.

I think the chips have the double disadvantage of fat and salt. Blech.

Nitr(a/i)tes. Migraine triggers.

I may go with that sara--concentrate the torment.

Sadly, my ER escort has been ragging on me for over a year to eat more salt for my health, and I've brushed him off. I'm from a hypertensive family and my mother was in hypertension research. It goes against my nurture, even if my standard BP is 100/60. I recently found out that 90/60 was the bottom threshold for "safe" in the ER.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Gatorade is salty.

I'd think you might be able to find them at an REI or something- based strictly off the fact that I know about them from adventure/climbing true stories. For all I know, CVS has them.

Or there is always [link] (sorry!)

Most canned soups taste too salty to me, and I'm kinda a salt fiend.

ita, how would you feel about something like popcorn with bacon salt?

Nitr(a/i)tes. Migraine triggers.

Darn.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Rigatoni is sitting on my desk, attacking the cursor. Deadly cuteness, but makes it hard to see the screen and read posts.

He's now attacking the letters as I type.

Teddy is up to 7 and 1/4 pounds, and his bloodwork is looking good. Still at weekly bloodwork, still confined to a large crate to avoid ripping the internal stitches.

I'd been avoiding popcorn too because of trigger issues, but you do mention bacon...so far I haven't had it in sufficient quantities to trigger the nitrite migraine thing. i'm more than willing to explore that...

Will you look at that? Sodium Chloride U.S.P. normal salt tablets. Whew! Saved from teh nast.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Kat...that just sucks royally. I'm so sorry your distract is screwing you like that. I've experienced all too well the evils of school districts. I can feel your pain.

askye: so I take it you are at TCC? I've lived in a number of places in Central and Northern FL. I'm suffering serious withdrawals from "The Loop", "Coffee Pub", "Kool Beans", and several other Tally places. I hate the way "Mike's Beer Barn" was 'renovated'.
