I don't add salt at all if Cadan is eating with us. We rarely add salt anyway and I use other flavours like garlic, chillie or herbs/spices. I do use stock in stews etc which obviously has lots of salt but try not to give Cadan the gravy part. 1g is such a small amount (it's 2g/day once they are over 1yo BTW) and most things, even BM and veggies, already have salt (sodium) in so they get all the salt they need from those foods. I worry about salt more than sugar as too much salt can kill a baby whereas sugar is just not that healthy a habit to get into needing I think. Most of the sugar C gets is from fruit or baby cereals but he has the odd 1/2 cookie at playgroup when I can't avoid it and also likes fromage frais sweetened by fruit juice/puree. Sugary snacks will be an occasional treat rather than an everyday occurence. My sister lets my niece and nephews (6 and 10yo) have choclate bars, biscuits and cake every day! Then wonders why they don't eat their dinners. I think that is crazy
