Answer:
yes sometimes I do salt or pepper before tasting.
I don't put salt on anything.
no I try it first
No, I don't make decisions until I have all the informaiton.
No, I don't. I don't use much salt to begin with, and I usually assume that the cook knew what s/he was doing. If not, I just add more.
I never salt anything that I eat....causes hypertension!
No, salt is bad for you and alters the taste of the food. Food is good without anything on it.
I don't care WHO cooked my meal. Some have a heavy hand with salt, others hardly use any. It doesn't make any difference and is considered the person salting before tasting is an 'uncultured PEASANT! I don't insult the cook salting the food before I taste it ——— I insult ME!
Before tasting? No. There might already be too much salt in the dish so why add more?

It has nothing to do with having a good cook. Personal preference takes precedence over someone else's assessment of the cook's ability.

If salt is already on the table, the presumption is that you are allowed to add salt without insult to the one who prepared the meal.
I hate when people do that. I worked at a restaurant that served award winning Maryland Crab Soup. This soup was perfect when it was served. I would put it down in front of people, and half of them would automatically salt and/or pepper it without tasting. How rude!
no, especially when it's a nice pie or cake

rumour has it that Henry Ford would take a prospective employee to lunch, and if he put salt on his food before tasting it, would not get the job . . .
Growing up, salting before tasting was the way my father taught us to eat our food. As I got older I stopped that and started tasting first, salting later if it warrant it. But it is always a small amount of salt and if more is needed then I add more, I don't dump a ton of it on at one time.

Also, with high blood pressure I try to use alternatives to salt, salt substitutes, Morton Lite Salt, etc. And when I do my own cooking for family and friends I do not salt the food. If I know for a fact that it does need a little flavor and salt is the only thing that will flavor it, the salt is at a very minimal. And I always tell my guests (friends & family) that they need to taste & then salt if needed as I use minimal to no salt in my cooking. No one seems to have a problem with that at all.....and it's better for you!
actually no i try to stay always from salt sometimes the seasoning worked better than the salt
Always taste first. It's just good manners.
no
No. I never add salt.
Never, how rude
I never add salt to my food.
no, after tasting only.
Yes I do it all the time.
yes at times, depends on what I am eating
No
in fine dinning restaurants there are no salt and pepper shakers. you have to trust the chef's sense of taste.

also salting before you eat is suppose to be a sign that you are in control of your destiny, and salting after you taste is a sign that you let others control it.
