49. I pray that my daughter never sees that
she's nutso about bacon. Bacon and peanut butter sandwiches, bacon bits right out of the jar, I even got some bacon flavored salt for her Christmas stocking this past year. She pours it into her hand and licks it off. It's actually sort of gross.

70. No, they haven't done salt, but they did do sugar.
That was the Paula Deen and Cat Cora versus Tyler Forence and Robert Irvine in Season 5, lats year.

Iron Chef Japan did not do salt, either, though I see that they did do a show on flour. I bet that was interesting!

I thought I remembered a show on salt, but maybe I was thinking of a "Good Eats" episode.
