Sweet or Salty

Morgan Webb asks "Which do you like better? Sweet or Salty"

I really hate sugar. It’s not because my dentist tells me it’s bad (which she does), or because of the Atkins Revolution (where we can all of the sudden eat pork rinds again). It’s because I don’t like the taste (smarties excepted, though I’ve eaten so many now I’m over them too). I don’t like sweet things, cakes, desserts, ice cream, candies, and I most definitely don’t like chocolate. When the waiter winks and proclaims that he’ll bring “two spoons” for me to steal off my friend's dessert plate I just ignore him and the spoon. Chocolate is terrible. It’s nasty, but the worst part is people always try and stuff it down your throat because they just can’t believe you don’t like it.

That’s not to say I don’t have my vices. I seek out the salt. The jerky snacks, the saltiest soups, the french fries, salt and vinegar chips, and flamin’ hot cheetos (mmmmmmmmmm my fav). What do you guys like better, sweet or salty? I’m gonna try turning the comments on again. Maybe it’s because I’m in a good mood today, or maybe I’m just a fool. [Morgan Webb]

Myself, It depends on the mood, but in general I'm more of a salty person. I love popcorn and pretzels and chips. I like chocolate and sweet things, but only in moderation. I can't finish a 20oz bottle of soda, it's just too heavy. I've become more a fan of flavored seltzers or just plain water. For desert I'm usually happy with a scoop of ice cream, but not a lot. Though, every once in a while I do have a massive sugar craving and things get ugly.

On the other hand, I love salty sweet things. Like pretzel bits mixed with chocolate, mmmmm.
