Salted apples????? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14763)   ranked 3 out of 2,912 in fruit2 years ago

hi my friends in Mylot,

In some discussions about food I read that many of our friends in the US sprinkle a little salt on apples when eating.
I never heard of this before. So please tell me what salting an apple is good for, mainly as we are recommended to use fewer salt to improve our eating habits.
Thanks a lot. Have a wonderful day.

I have known people here in the U.S. to salt apples, melon, carrot sticks, celery sticks, cucumber slices, etc. I personally find it disgusting. Yeah, lets eat fruits and veggies, but then pile on salt and completely lose the point of doing something good for the body. I personally like my fruit just as it is, and my vegetable either unadulterated or with a little homemade low fat dip.

yes sure thats a good point. Enjoy your fruits and veggies and have a lovely day.

Its probably not good for your health, but it does taste pretty good. I like it from time to time that way.
I also sometimes like salt on my watermelon and on cantolope. It's kinda like a salty/sugary craving all in one. FOr some reason the taste combination is really good!

We don't have this eating habit. In the past my grandma would put some salt on the watermelon and she said it's tasteful and healthier. I don't like it. As it seems a little strange. It is the same for me to think putting the salt on the apple:)

I personally think it is gross but I have seen a lot of people do it. I live mine covered in caramel but that isn't really any more healthy then the salt but I think it makes more sense.

I have never had salt on an apple. I have had sugar on tomatoes and salt on fresh canatloupe, but never salt on fresh apples. It might be interesting to try.


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14763)   ranked 3 out of 2,912 in fruit  2 years ago

sugar on tomatoes, totally new to me, should try that too But salted apples are a personal eating highlight for me now. lol.

A little salt never hurt, the apple's flavor comes out better with a little salt. To make it stay fresh, sprinkle a little lemon juice on it.


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14763)   ranked 3 out of 2,912 in fruit  2 years ago

hi I know that hint with the lemon juice, my mom did that too so the apples dont get brown. have a wonderful day.

I like to put salt when eating apples but only the green ones. It taste nice. My mother used to put salt on apples to avoid the apples from getting brown.


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14763)   ranked 3 out of 2,912 in fruit  2 years ago

thanks for telling me. Yes I recently had a Golden Delicious apple with salt on it and it didnt brown, noticed that too.

Hello book1962, I think people mix apples with salt for an added flavor actually and the taste should be awesome. I love it too sometimes when I have a sour taste in my mouth.

Been good so far..? I hope you are and doing well.


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14763)   ranked 3 out of 2,912 in fruit  1 year ago

hi zed I have tried that myself by now and only can say it tastes very good to eat apples with salt.
have a wonderful day

Salted apples taste good. People really like eating foods with
strong tastes. Apples have a weak taste, and when you put salt in
it, it would be more satisfying.

On the health issue side, I don't think there is an added
benefit in salting apples.

Have a nice day!happy

hi I have to be careful because of a little high blood pressure and so I will use lite salt from now on when salting my apples. Have a wonderful day and a good time here on mylot.
