I also like the fact that some restaurants are cutting back in salt (like NYC). That wasn't mentioned in this blog post but it goes along with gradual reduction in the food that we buy and order in restaurants.

First of all, the companies are doing the right thing by reducing the salt content. Secondly, I think people can indeed retrain the tongue to appreciate tastes by gradually reducing salt usage.
