A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Can you describe what saltiness is without using the word salt?
Tastes like sweat.
"Hmmm... I tasted the food, I think it would be better if it tasted a little more like human sweat."
Either way, that's not really a description so much as comparative example, that's like describing umami as soy sauce.
