Salty

Feelin’ so much better today.  No delayed reaction to that pesky avocado.  Thank goodness for modern medicine!  I even woke up before Henry – at 5:00 AM – and thought for a few glorious hours that he had truly slept through the night (11 PM to 5:30 AM). Turns out that Kristien slept upstairs and handled the 1:30 AM wake-up so I could get some serious shut-eye.  What a winner.

 

I made him breakfast as a thank you.  A BIG breakfast.  I was huunnnngry.

Egg scramble with mushrooms and kale

Melon

Blackberries

Toast with Italian herb spread (it’s sold in the produce section)

So, when I went on that Whole Foods tour a few weeks back, I received a free sample of Real Salt.  At the same, I kind of rolled my eyes, thinking, “Yo, salt is salt.  Don’t try to make me pay more for fancy salt.”

But you know what?  Salt is NOT always salt.  This Real Salt is SO much tastier and more flavorful that the regular boxed salt that I’ve been slowly working my way through for – ohhhh – three years.  From the website:

 

Real Salt means – well, real, authentic salt. A quick glance at the ingredients label on most salts might surprise you! Many salts contain anti-caking agents and even dextrose (sugar). Others have been heat processed and stripped of their natural trace minerals. Real Salt brand, on the other hand, is unrefined and full of natural minerals and flavor – the way salt was meant to be savored.

Real Salt’s unique coloring comes from more than 60 trace minerals, which also lend an amazing flavor that has helped Real Salt become the best-selling brand of sea salt in health food stores. Real Salt is best tasting, healthiest sea salt you can find.

 

Once I make my way through this bottle, I promise you that I’ll be scouring the grocery store aisle to find more Real Salt.  It’s that good.  And I never thought I’d say that!
