    Cooking, French style

    is it true that french people do not use salt in their cooking or is someone just taking the mick?

    a guy at work doesn't use any salt in his cooking, but i think thats for health reasons, and he is scottish, but that is irrelevant.

    someone is pulling your leg . they do use salt and pepper . it is a must in french cuisine . he could be doing it for health reasons .

    wow, one time my family was invited for lunch at this house that didn't cook w/ salt (for health reasons)... i almost threw up when i ate the food. I didn't know it had no salt in it so the food that was supposed to be all salty just tasted like water and almost sweet!!

    I know it's unhealthy, but dude, i can't LIVE without an excess of salt in ma food
