tony 33 · 30-09-2007, 09:36 PM

yeah stupid q but i have a stupid wife...just need a second or more opinion....so is that a yes or no dusty??

Bulldozer · 30-09-2007, 09:43 PM

No such thing as a stupid question bro

I would politely say no and explain why

invisiblekid · 30-09-2007, 09:44 PM

No I wouldn't. Depends how salty, but if it's really salty they might wanna think about reducing it for the sake of their own health.

You don't like it and we all know that high amounts of salt isn't really doing you any favours - just politely tell them you don't want it.

Next time you cook and make it so hot that she bleeds from the mouth. If she complains then tell her you never complained about her salt moutain dish.

She will get the hint even if she is that stupid.

I second that, no point doing something you dont wanna. Im sure she will understand, if not - then it may be time to reconsider!

leeston · 03-10-2007, 01:52 PM

I would definately say something mate, if it is your wife then she should understand. Explain your reasons.

However, if it is someone else, someone you visit occassionally then judge it as you see fit. Either tell them the food is sh1te and spit it out or just grin and bear it.

chrisj22 · 03-10-2007, 02:01 PM

If it's your wife (which, by reading your statement 'stupid wife' I take it, it is), say something.

If you can't tell your wife that a bit of food is salty, you can't tell her anything.

noturbo · 03-10-2007, 03:03 PM

If you are worried about just coming out and saying her food is rank just bring it up in a jokey kinda way and laugh about it so she wont feel as hurt maybe!

I remember terrible experiences having dinners at my grandparents as a kid on boxing day with salted water as gravy, cold soggy chips and meat that had been cooked since easter so i feel your pain lol

OnePack · 03-10-2007, 03:27 PM

This isn't a stupid question at all. I know exactly what you mean.

It's difficult to be polite and not to refuse food especially if it's cooked and ready to eat for you on the table. I always end up with an argument with these issues, at the end of the day they are you own family and are just merely cooking for you, just think of all the people in the world without food and those who have no one to cook for them.

leeston · 03-10-2007, 03:28 PM

mate - we sometimes eat seperate meals. Fridays especially, she is happy just having pasta for tea whereas I have been eating it all week and may have mackrel or egg on toast.

If it that bad you try doing the cooking that way she may learn where she is going wrong.

Slamdog · 03-10-2007, 03:44 PM

I do the cooking in our house.....

I wouldn't eat anything I didn't like the taste of... not that there is much i dont like. Salty food is disgusting though... I don't put any salt in my cooking or on my food as an extra...

imworkingonit · 03-10-2007, 06:44 PM

Beware how you tell her...women store moments like this in a file at the back of their brain, the title of the file is "Argument comebacks and winners"
It might be all but forgotten in the distant future, but she will never forget it, and will use it to nail you to the wall when she needs a "get out of a tight spot" comeback
