Open letter to Cornish pastry product manufacturers

November 21st, 2006 Matthew Revell

Hello,

I wonder if there’d be fewer heart attacks among the travelling salesman fraternity, and other frequenters of filling station chiller cabinets, if you put less salt in your products.

It was an odd sensation as my entire face puckered into that of an old woman, as the salt in your Chicken and Mushroom slice immediately rid my body of water through osmosis.

Any chance you could lighten up on the use of salt? It might make me more inclined to buy again and, perhaps, save thousands of children from crying into their pillows in memory of their now departed salesman fathers.

Yours,

Matthew P Revell.

    Ah, but the salt covers up the fact that it doesn’t really taste of anything. Without salt, they’d need to actually make it tasty!

    At least this isn’t an open letter to the government in petition for reform of Cornish pastry product manufacturers.

    So, they are too salty? Since when are pastries health food? Find something else to eat. Perhaps they are dong quite a service to those with low blood pressure! :P

    Just on a side note, I became a vegetarian about a year and a half ago and one thing I noticed about many food products aimed especially at vegetarians (like those that include fake meat) was that they seemed to be overly salty…
