I like sweet too but I don't usually crave sweetness as much as I crave saltiness. I realized that most of my favorite foods are salty. For example, chips, onion rings, spicy french fries, pickles, olives, and my favorite... umeboshi! You may not have heard of umeboshi before, but it's delicious. I say that, but most people don't like it. It's extremely salty. It's a pickled Japanese plum and has many health benefits, but my problem with eating umeboshi is that too much salt is not good for you and I often take more umeboshi than is healthy. However i try to control myself I love salty foods! I like sweet too but I don’t usually crave sweetness as much as I crave saltiness.

Salt is my weakness, it goes with everything, slap some butter on some bread and sprinkle some salt on it...delightful!!! Cheese and salt go together like cheese and salt, especially when topped on nachos or a potato in any form, i put salt on everything, and if it comes to dessert at night, screw the cakes give me a salty dirty martini with blue cheese olives!

I'd rather eat a bowl of kalamata olives and firm cheese than a sweet. I don't like chocolate and despise cake. I prefer salt. I’d rather eat a bowl of kalamata olives and firm cheese than a sweet.

Nothing salty really appeals to me unless it's like pickles and mashed potatoes with cheese. *Not together of course..* -Sylvia I’m pretty sure I fall on the sweet side.

I will eat cookies when available but I usually need to stop after 3 or 4 since I can't handle too much. On the other hand give me Chex mix and I will eat the bag without realizing it. Especially in the summer as it can be 34 degrees Celsius(93 fahrenheit)with 50 to 60% humidity and the salt pours out of my sweat glands. Oh I always drink my coffee black, prefer dark chocolate, and black pepper and onion are more delicious than salt. I am salty 120%.

Don't make me choose one without the other. Some days I like it sweet, some days I like it salty...Ok, maybe not the whole day. Aargh! Don’t make me choose one without the other.

There are very few sweets I really enjoy, most are too sweet by far. Even milk chocolate tastes like a sugar kick to me! SALTY! There are very few sweets I really enjoy, most are too sweet by far.

ALthough a combo is always nice as well. NOTHING is as delicious as a chocolate covered pretzel:) REcently someone made for me the most amazing chocolate cookies dusted with sea salt. It sounded kinda nasty but the taste was addictive. sweet all the way baby!! ALthough a combo is always nice as well.
