Salted apples?????

As far as I know, it is not good for anything except changing the taste. It's not bad, just do not over-salt it. o:

It's just a 'taste' thing. Like putting salt on cantalope or watermelon, same thing...lori

It is only a matter of taste. i don't salt apples. but I would salt melon if it wasn't very ripe and sweet. I limit my salt intake and use a salt substitute but use that only seldom.

I salt my apples sometimes. But its just for a different taste. I have heard of some people salting oranges, bananas, and peaches. I haven't tried that and don't think i'm going to.

Well I do put salt on most of my fruits. But it will only be Lite Salt.. And when I do put salt on it, it will only be in moderation. There are times that I will not use salt. It does taste good. It brings out the taste better, that is just in my opinion.

Salting apples just gives it a different flavor, much like putting cheese on an apple pie gives it a different flavor. My grandmother used to tell us that you salt a juicy, sweet apple, but never a tart one. I guess that makes sense.

I've never heard of that. It sounds like it'd be weird. I guess it might be ok, though. I know some people eat apple chips which have salt on them. I've tried them and I liked them. From my experience peole in the US eat things because they taste good, not becasue it's good for them.

Yes, this is very common here. My mom likes to do that, and I guess I used to do that when I was a child, but not anymore. We'd cut them in slices and then put less than a pinch of salt on them. For someone who is healthy this is not a big deal. The amount of salt put on the apple is very very small.

Hi Book! Wow, you bring back childhood memories with this. I can remember my older brother salting apples, and I hadn't thought of that for eons. I think it just intensifies the taste of the apple. You know how salt improves the taste of pretty much everything, so it sort of makes sense that it might 'improve' or intensify the taste of an apple. Geez, now I want an apple and some salt, lol! Thanks for the memory, Book. Have a wonderful day. Be safe and have fun!

Hie Book1962, salted apples do taste great and it's good for a change.
Over here we sprinkle salt ( small amount ) to delay the slices of apples ( flesh ) from turning to brownish and ended up not that appetizing later. But some like to do that because it tasted better.
Now mostly people are more health conscious so instead of using salt they use lemon/lime juice instead to delay the process. Whether it;s salt or lemon juice, it equally taste wonderful.
