A new TikTok trend tries to convince us to add salt to our morning coffee. Research has found that salt not only has health benefits but also enhances coffee's sometimes too bitter taste.
Experts agree: Food scientist Alton Brown expressed his support for the idea on his show, Good Eats. Some commenters adamantly refused to try the salt trick, there were a few who admitted they tried and it definitely works. "My grandfather taught me this in the '60s. Since then, it's been mandatory in our family," one user said.
