Adding Salt

[jw5]

No, not to the wound, but to certain drinks like cola drinks, and to certain fruits.
I have never understood why people add salt to soft drinks or to fruits.
Isn't taking too much salt bad for the health?
And how does it enhance the taste?
Anyone here who adds salt to soft drinks or fruits?

Not to enhance the taste but to neutralise the acidity.
Removing the "bite" from gassy drinks or fruits allows you to enjoy the real taste
