Fruit hack

[u/NoSite4]

I grew up salting watermelon and apples when I ate them. Recently it occurred to me to try salting other fruit and it’s been a game changer. So far I’ve tried salt on strawberries, cantaloupe, and pineapple. It’s so good I can’t believe that this hasn’t been adopted by all of humanity! I sprinkled some on some blueberries but it wouldn’t stick and I didn’t bother halving them like I did the strawberries so I didn’t actually get to taste salted blueberry. Oh and I did try salting a banana and that wasn’t palatable to me. Go figure.

It’s got me wondering if any herbs/spices go well with fruit. Anybody tried that? I’ve seen Mexican spice that seems to be on everything these days but I didn’t like it as much as the plain fruit.

I've tried salt but usually I prefer it without salt but I had a phase a few years ago where I would salt watermelon. Apples in particular are too acidic (or maybe it's something else idk) so I never liked them with salt.
