Not salt: Not cocaine.

Many of us instinctively reach for the salt bottle before even tasting the food. Many of us get just a tiny, tiny bit excited when the (Italian) waiter comes over with that great pig pepper pot.

Isn't it about time, with all our know-how, to come out with a legal, non-viagara, non-narcotic-but-not-far-off-it kind of condiment? Something you would not eat on its own, but applied in a small amount to your food makes you act/feel like a Red Indian dancing round the fire for a few minutes before settling down and having a lot of honest talking fun and generally feeling great.

Somewhere between truffles and something I would never try. (And inexpensive).

Waiter: "yojobuvite, sir?" (or whatever)

Diner 1: "Hell, yeah!....whoa, stop, stop! Oh shit." <wicked smile>

Diner 2: "Yee-har! Jester's dead!"

       I'm with that. If caffeine were not so bitter, mayhap it could be crystallized and pulverized?

       How about having a drink before dinner...enough for a minor buzz.

       I agree. Beware Alcohol Demon hiding in salt pot.

       Is it true you can get drunk on water?

       No alcohol required - much for "water intoxication" on web.   

       Bu then you would need various salts to get over it.

       When I was a kid, my Pop would always go on about how "Those Hollywood Weirdos put that CO-caine on their food". I can only imagine what must have taken place when someone "tried it at home" after hearing such rubbish.
