Isnt it crazy how almost every one of these microwave dinners contains the daily amount of salt in one single serving?

No, not really. Most precooked or prepared food requires a fair amount of salt to keep it palatable when reheated. This is a pretty common thing that most people are aware of.

Geez i wish there where some other spices except salt to make food taste more. I can only think of one other thing and that is black pepper but that stuff is WAY too spicy for me.

I'm not sure what you're on about, but the need for excessive salt has to do with how the evaporating moisture leaches the salt already in the food when reheated by most means. It has next to nothing to do with seasoning.

>anon doesn't understand basic marketing
The general population is happy with just salt so it's the obvious choice of seasoning. While adding other spices into the food might attract customers who are looking for other flavors they'd likely lose a bunch of people who look at the label and go "dang cumin in MY food?". It's not like the key demo for microwave dinners is the most gourmand type.

Salt recommendations are a lie. There's almost no evidence that you need so little salt.

Salt is good for you. Drink more water.

High sodium is unironically healthy.

It's the other way around anon. Low sodium diets will kill you. Europeans are evolved to eat a lot of salt.
