One other "lunch test" I've always heard of is to see if someone salts their food before tasting it. It is a sign of jumping to a conclusion out of habit before getting a good assessment of the reality of the situation.

It can also just be a sign of a person who drinks a lot of water.
If you drink a gallon or more of water a day, food salted for the average person always requires more salt.
It's a matter of experience, not jumping to a conclusion.
In the last 50 years I have never been served a meal that was adequately salted to my taste, so why not salt first?

The Scott quote makes for an interesting tagline.

I think you just like salt. My wife and I drink a ton of water (the two of us alone go through 15 gallons a week at home and both work full time) and we don't use salt for hardly anything because we don't really like it except with certain foods. Now pepper on the other hand, in some restaurants I've been known to turn food black.
