Saturn In Virgo: England Tricks People Into Consuming Less Salt
Outtakes and various other sundries..
A reader sent me this with the comment, “It just doesn’t stop.” She’s right about that. Government (Saturn) controlling the diet (Virgo) that is…
Salt licked?
A number of councils in England have given fish & chip shops replacement salt shakers with fewer holes - from the Daily Mail:
“Research has suggested that slashing the holes from the traditional 17 to five could cut the amount people sprinkle on their food by more than half.
And so at least six councils have ordered five-hole shakers – at taxpayers’ expense – and begun giving them away to chip shops and takeaways in their areas. Leading the way has been Gateshead Council, which spent 15 days researching the subject of salty takeaways before declaring the new five-hole cellars the solution…”

I would say if the industry designs unhealthy food to look appealing and healthy, misleading people and no one cares, why the government shouldn’t go the other way around? Sounds good to me.
those salt-shakers look like boobs: sexy robot boobs. aw geez.
lol Satori…that’s what I thought too till I read the headline!
This one’s actually pretty funny, but about as sexy as the lotus boob.
The daily mail is the devil. It’s like a comic for half-literate fascists who think they’re advertising their sophistication and semi-aristocratic origins. My mother reads the Daily Mail and tells me that the unemployed should be made to wash people’s cars for free. I haven’t spoken to her in 5 years and that is partly the Daily Mail’s fault.
That aside though, I think the salt thing is crazy. Personally I never eat salt but this whole issue in the UK is all part of the legacy of a free health service. If they can cut down on hypertension then the cardiac bills that have to be paid by central govt. will be less. If all healthcare was private I am quite sure we would not be reading this story at all, as ever, it has way more to do with money than it does with health.
I read the comments, and they were very interesting/enlightening.
