That's a pet peeve of mine. Taste the food first. You can't know if it
needs additional seasoning until you've taken a bite.
Food should be prepared for those who don't like it salty because you
can't take it out. Then, those of us who like food salty can add it.
If you make food salty enough to please me, then you are a shitty
cook.

Agreed Brian that food should be made 'lower salt' then those who like more
can add more. There's a few dishes I'd expect to be salty from the start.
Salt boiled peanuts for one. Generally, I'll add salt to many things after
tasting. A few right at the start (mentioned mashed potatoes or baked in
the shell with nothing yet added).
My area has a number of places that make great pizza. To a lot of people
good pizza is a minimalist thing that depends on a good crust with
minimal toppings baked in a hot (real) oven. In a number of local places
the only thing you can order is pizza as they make it with no options
such as additional toppings. They do a great business and on many nights
you need to wait in line.

And in this case the author was talking about not allowing ketchup on
*french fries* not a hamburger.

More for you! I'm not a big fan of citrus zest, either. I was given a
zester as a gift and I've never used it. I'm not a fan of lemon-pepper,
either.
