NYC lawmaker wants to singlehandedly destroy the greatest food city in America.
I think Tom Colichio said it best.
“New York City is considered the restaurant capital of the world. If they banned salt, nobody would come here anymore,” said Tom Colicchio, star of “Top Chef” and owner of Craft.
Eric Ripert said it too. Just with a heavy French accent.
“I have zero problems with blood pressure, zero problems with my health, and I have eaten salt all my life,” said Eric Ripert, chef at world-famous Manhattan restaurant Le Bernardin.
“Cooked food tastes good with salt and it’s bland without it,” said Ripert. “I believe very much that processed food is not good for you. But salt – salt is different. There are zero dishes I prepare that have no salt at all.
I find it hilarious that a bill like this is even being considered. I’m thoroughly convinced that politicians are idiots. Party has nothing to do with it.
