Salt & vinegar fries and ketchup 💚

I still occasionally eat typically salty things, but not nearly as much as I used to. For most of my life I thought it was all-or-nothing with salt, and going 'salt-free' was so incredibly difficult for me. No matter what I tried I never lasted beyond a couple of days. So instead, I shifted my focus to expanding my range of salt enjoyment, which, for me at least, has worked better than I ever imagined.

On foods like this, I often enjoy just a small amount of surface salt. Even here, there's probably about 125mg added sodium on top. I've learned to trust my tastes, so I don't precalculate that kinda stuff anymore. It's liberating. I have developed this sense of what it feels like to have eaten too much sodium. Like in the movie Taken, Liam Neeson's particular set of skills includes combat, weapons handling, surveillance, and intelligence gathering. I know when I've eaten too much salt. We're all good at something!

These could've used more vinegar, but I didn't want to overdo it. Really I just wanted a big plate of what I affectionately call 'fries that were once crispy' and these were just great.
