Shut the fuck up. Adding salt at the table is faux pas only if you do so without tasting first. The greater offense is serving food without having properly seasoned before plating.

Anyone here saying "don't add salt" or "salt is bad"... is a moron who doesn't know anything about cooking. Good food...okay there are some exceptions...good food requires salt and a lot more than you realize if you're cooking from absolute scratch. We aren't talking about adding salt to frozen salisbury steak or boxed macaroni & cheese. Food needs salt to taste good. This has been understood for thousands of years...by everyone except Mormons and Mexicans. If you don't get it then fuck off.

The only difference between Denny's and "nice" restaurants is the use of salt during cooking and hiring Mexicans who don't overcook everything. No joke. Serious.

Maybe this says something about you and not the.restaurant business. I don't believe you have significant cooking experience and are basing your response largely upon popular stereo-types you associate with the industry. If you are a cook then I would take a hard look at yourself and try to figure out why you're surrounded by social misfits and addicts. What are you lacking? Is it education? Does your appearance need a good polish? Bad attitude? Maybe it's your region. Do you simply not have quality restaurants in your area? It is largely about perspective. Maybe you just finished Kitchen Confidential and have it all figured out? I don't know about you. I know about me and where I work. Here...no one touching a knife does so with less than an associated degree. Most of us are married. We all have health insurance, and there's a pre-employment drug screen. Smoking is prohibited on restaurant property...two guys go across the street twice per night.
Many of us smoke weed but if there's any heroin or coke the users maintain very well. We have strict hygiene and appearance standards and no one...no one is late. Oh...

And we salt the fuck out of our food.

black fungus far past mold was another thing recently found in some grocery stores we were checking. It was in their chipped ice machine and had been used on everything from raw meats and shellfish to veggies and fruits for god knows how long before it was discovered.

In a few mom and pop places they had bulk bread that was toasted and shaved before being served to look good and cook products under raw.
Just little things that add up. I once found an entire lobster clamped onto the back of a steamer that had escaped and died clinging to the back of the machine. It was so foul. How they couldn't smell it I'll never know.

Id like to point out the mistake in your second link stating under federal law a break must be 20 minutes long in order to be paid. That is a confusing typo. The federal law states...that a break if given, must be at least 20 minutes in length before it can be considered 'unpaid'. If your employer allows a 19 minute break it must be paid under federal law. There is however no federal law requiring your employer give you any break at all.

At a restaurant? fuck no i never use table salt except to add a tiny bit to fries sometimes, especially super thick ones. pepper too.

But at home, i always put a little salt and pepper on my fried eggs after cooking, and sometimes on broccoli cauliflower or sugarsnap peas.
