But they add salt to keep the water in the meat (or it looks too
watery). So, you are really getting salt water. And there is no good
reason for it. They do it so that they can put a lower price per pound
on the label to mislead the buyer.

I would rather pay more per pound, get the same amount of meat, and
skip the salt.
