Oh, for crying out loud!!! If a person with high blood pressure eats "two eggs scrambled with bacon, diced ham, crumbled sausage and topped with Cheddar cheese, served alongside two bacon strips, two sausage links, hash browns and two buttermilk pancakes" and is too stupid to realize that there's going to be a ton of sodium in it, he needs to be removed from the gene pool.
Would he cook this way at home and then be stunned when he ingested too much salt? Has he ever read the label on bacon? or sausage? Doesn't he have a list of foods he is suppose to avoid or eat in moderation? If he was diabetic would he order a hot fudge sundae and be surprised when his sugar spiked?
I'm thinking I may sue the city because the nice wide black walkway in front of my house isn't clearly marked "Caution - roadway. You might be run over by a car if you stand here." And there's nothing on my stove that says "Do not put your hand in the flame - you could get burned."

Never underestimate the potential stupidity of a human being.
Having said that, I really am glad that the overdependence of the food industry on added sodium is coming to light. Personally, I just don't like the stuff and I can, will, and do send food back if it is oversalted. I've learned the hard way that if I am at Chili's, I have to say (several times over) NO SALT for everything, and I still wind up sending it back half the time.
Last time I was at Denny's (a couple of weeks ago), I asked for a three-egg omelet with nothing except tomatoes, mushrooms, and green peppers. No, I told the waiter, I didn't want cheese. No, I told the waiter, I didn't want side dishes. Just a 3-egg omelet with tomatoes, mushrooms, and green peppers. That's all. Really.
After the third faulty omelet was brought to me, I said "To hell with it" and picked out the onions that are forbidden on my diet.
Needless to say, I'm not too unhappy about Denny's getting the "Grand Slam."

GK I went with hubby to Chili's and got a Patron Margarita--I bet that was a big shock to you!! I told them SEVERAL times NO SALT. I get the drink and not only is the rim salted, but there was almost a 1/2 inch of salt in the bottom of the drink!! I just looked at the waitress and said " I am sorry to trouble you but not only did I ask for no salt but as you can clearly see how much is sitting at the bottom of my drink I ask, would you drink it?" She took it away and returned with a salted rim minus the salt at the bottom. Real problem making them understand the no salt idea. I sent it back again and said if you can't bring it minus salt I will gladly walk over to Applebees I am sure they will get it right. I finally got a drink with no salt. She had the nerve to say it wasn't her fault the bartender made it wrong. I asked her if she knew it was wrong why did she keep bringing it to me? Her response, "Beacause the bartender made it." Her tip was lousy!

Kittymom, you snorted lemonade through your nose?!?!?!? How painful and embarrassing. Quick, go read the label. If it doesn't say "Caution, do not laugh while using this product" you may have a really good lawsuit.
