Food industry Quote by Michael Greger

“But there are two other major reasons the food industry adds salt to foods. If you add salt to meat, it draws in water. This way, a company can increase the weight of its product by nearly 20 percent. Since meat is sold by the pound, that’s 20 percent more profits for very little added cost.” quote by Michael Greger
