Russ. I was recently in Germany and enjoyed drinking the water right from the tap a couple times. Felt great drinking all of the mineral water and breathing in the clean air. (my home is Chicago) To my surprise, I looked at what spices my mother in law had and her salt had Floride added into it!! She said it was "good for the teeth". Germany is usually so ahead of the game with this kind of thing it really surprised me. Of course I realized this at the end of my stay and ate all of her delicious, but very salty food, for 2 weeks straight. I will show my husband this post so that he can translate it for my mother in law.
thanks,
