re: Spinoff thread....Why use salt in a crawfish boil?

Weird melt, but okay.

You have provided cherrypicked facts that do not represent the actual scenerio. Your ignorance in that you are measuring 5lbs of salt to 40lbs of crawfish with zero other variables.

I didn't provide cherrypicked facts, I presented the facts based on what I could discern:

I know it's hard to break down the amount due to varying absorption rates, but how much sodium could that end up being per 5 lb serving? I could obviously be way off but seems like a potential death sentence for the unwary consumer.

I mean, I'm possibly wrong, but even if that 5lb serving absorbed just .1 lb of the salt that's still 45,359 mg of sodium where the recommended daily limit is 3200. I'm perfectly prepared to be dead wrong due to some scientific principle, and almost expect to be, but seems like a whole lot.

I flatly stated that the absorption rate was something to consider but that was unknown and repeatedly emphasized that I could be wrong and seeking more information. Instead of discussing the issue substantively, you just responded with insults and saying I am wrong with no explanation why.

The fact that you have persisted in this is funny, and that you have even thread hopped to continue should be embarrassing. That you're not speaks volumes. You're a weird dude, and one who is indeed ignorant.

Very weird melt. Over salt.
