    Smile Getting to know each other: Which would you give up-Sugar, Salt or Pepper

    If you had to give up one the following, sugar including other sweeteners, salt or pepper which one would it be and why?

    I would give up salt. I like my sweet tea (I am good old southern gal) and I like the taste of freshly ground pepper so I think I could give up salt most easily.

    What about you...which one would you give up?

    I could give up both salt and pepper. I don't use either, so I wouldn't miss them.

    Yes I'm out of my mind. It's a dark and scary place in there.

    i would give up salt and pepper. I barely use them now, so I would not miss them at all.

    I'd have to say pepper although I've pretty much given up salt (even though I love it) because of high BP.

    I'd give up sugar. Other than a recent thing for ice cream, I'm not a big sweets person. Oh, well, I do have to have my iced coffee, which is mocha flavored... but that's not really sugar, right?

    I use fresh ground pepper and a little bit of salt almost daily- it would be hard for me to cut those out.

    Pepper for me. I don't use it that often and would miss it least of the three.

    I gave up sugar although I use splenda. I would have a tought time with salt so I guess I would give up pepper.

    Pepper. I rarely use it although I am a spice person, lol. I have a mega sweet tooth so sugar is LAST on any list.

    Definitely salt. Never have liked it. LOVE spicy food, though, and put pepper on everything. Also have a huge sweet-tooth!

    Pepper would probably be the easiest for me to give up.
