Is there any particular reason why people don't put salt in their coffee? 👀

I made coffee with condensed milk for my husband and thought that since condensed milk taste the same as caramel, I'd add a sprinkle of salt, making it a salted caramel coffee. Then I was like, what stops me from adding salt to mine as well? Mine is just coffee and a bit of rice-almond milk, and guys it tastes great too! It makes it better lol.

Never tried it. I gotta be wary of rising blood pressure

@Thevy29 It's such a teeny tiny pinch it won't harm your blood pressure to try it, don't worry. For skimping on salt I have go-to-meal if you're curious btw! It's white fish and new potatoes! I cook the frozen white fish in its own juices, no oil, no salt. You can add a little table sugar in the start of the cooking process if the fish is not the sweet variety. Eat with or without lemon. The new potatoes need to be fresh, just boil them normally in a separate pot and they taste amazing in themselves! I eat this sometimes just to be healthy, but I cannot get good enough potatoes here in winter, so it's a summer meal for me.

When I was in grad school, the cafeteria coffee was terrible. Somebody suggested that adding a bit of salt helped the taste. I tried it, and it worked. It still wasn't good, but it wasn't as bad.
