Do you salt your food after it has been prepared?
If I’ve done the cooking, it already tastes the way I want it to. Otherwise I taste it first.
I was in a restaurant in Amsterdam, and saw a woman empty practically half a salt shaker onto her food, without even tasting it first. I wonder what her blood pressure was.
Usually, no. Depends on who’s making it. My mother tends to undersalt, but I’m fine everywhere else pretty much.
It depends what the food tastes like without it. 
If it wants some salt, then I put some in. Otherwise I leave it alone. Although I’m a salt-and-savory-aholic, and have been known to snack on bullion cubes, I do appreciate subtle flavors. Just…sometimes a little salt makes it that much better.
I salt steak and other types of beef. Otherwise, no, not really.
I use some half-and-half salt when I’m cooking, but I almost never salt food after it’s been prepared. There isn’t much food that North Americans eat that isn’t loaded with sodium already, and I like to taste the actually food tastes, not just salty taste.
You didn’t make an option for tasting it first.
In my opinion it’s an insult to the cook to season without at least trying a bite.
I sometimes put salt on chips. That’s it, though.
I don’t like food that’s “too salty” and hardly ever salt anything before I have tasted it. It always puzzles me to see others grab a salt shaker and cover whatever it is before even tasting it.
I’m more apt to pepper things I have yet to taste, but that’s also a moderation thing.
I don’t add sugar to things either, unless they really need sweetening.
ETA: What zoid said.
Salt is my favorite food. I love salt. I salt everything, especially pasta, potatoes, rice, and vegetables. Salt, salt, salt. I do not have high blood pressure.
Being forced to eat say, potatoes, without salt would be like a form of torture.
I had thought about that, but kind of assumed that nowadays most folks test their food prior to salting. But then again what do I know? 
Plus, adding this option would have resulted in more non-mutually exclusive options.
Agreed
Moving thread to Cafe Society, old salts.
Somewhere between rarely and never.
I do use a little salt when cooking, of course. But something that comes to me in a restaurant, or that someone else has prepared - nope. I dislike salty foods like chips and salted nuts, most canned soups and fast food is unpleasantly salty and makes me super-thirsty.
Ditto. I’m a little sensitive to the taste of salt (and get bloated from it relatively easily), so I tend to under-salt things when cooking and to taste my food before I reach for salt, if ever. I’m not much of an autocondimentor to start with, though, as I tend to taste a little bit before I put sauces, spices, etc. on the prepared food I’m eating.
If I prepare it, no, but I might if others cooked it.
Not generally, but I am partial to the taste of salt. So there are some foods where the saltiness is part of the enjoyment (buttered corn, eggs, sea salt on a good steak).
I don’t like lots of salt, so I don’t use much when cooking. And I’ll taste before reaching for the shaker. I’ve quit eating canned soups because they’re all so doggone salty, plus my homemade soups are so much better anyway… 
My wife cooks with quite a bit of salt, so usually I don’t add more.
Confirmed saltaholic here…salt on everything…salad, pizza, etc, although I NEVER add it to my baking, other than bread. My dad used to be on my ass everytime he saw me salt something. BTW, my blood pressure runs low/normal.
I salt starches—potatoes, rice, pasta—and vegetables, but usually don’t salt the meat. I do like a lot of salt on my potatoes. Butter too.
