Can anyone see whats wrong with my question?

Your question isn’t there when it is getting moderated, ie, we can’t see it.

You should PM the mods or talk to them in the chat to work through this.

I urge you to put on a cooler head. Using words like “bullshit” and “bullies” is not the kind and respectful way to approach this issue.

We cannot see the question as it is being moderated. Please copy and paste it here if you want us to discuss it.

i used no salt butter,unsalted four,no salt in eggs and as far as i know there is no salt in sugar. so why do they taste salty.(they are so SALTY they are disgusting)

Yeah, I am wondering the same thing. You got moderated yesterday, too. I’d be interested in the explanation.
The question was about why her waffles turned out so salty if she didn’t use any salt in the recipe.

Nobody gets picked on by fluther. Check your email. You probably have the chance to change it.

Well, you can try cleaning up the grammar/look and feel of your question. Then use the details to post the recipe so we know what we’re working with and possibly mention how you made them (ie, waffle machine and if you used a spray or butter to grease it and what kind of spray).

First off, I must point out that you are not abiding by one guideline that states that the proper use of English is encouraged. Using capitals and spaces are encouraged. This is a small thing, but you are asking for help and I want to give it to you, and this is help.

Your question would be best presented as the following in my opinion:
Title: “Why are my cake/cookies turning out so salty?” (You have not said what IT is that is salty, how do we know, thus how can we help?)
Description: “I made a batch of cookies recently. I used unsalted butter, unsalted flour, eggs, and sugar. I did not add any more salt. Why, then, do my cookies taste salty?” (If you used an online recipe, post the link! That’s great initiative!)

Do you see how this is different from your original question, yet contains the same information? My form of your question would not be moderated at all because it is well presented. Please let me know if I can explain any portion of my refinement to you.

Perhaps too much baking soda?

@dynamicduo : Just for the record, the original title of the question was something along the lines of “Why are my waffles so salty?”

@Les Thank you !

@Les Thanks Les, I could only go by what @sandystrachan had posted and I thought that was it.

”(to all the cooks) i just made waffle batter,yet when i ate them they tasted salty?” was the title

@sandy: The only thing I can think of is the question was moderated for poor sentence structure. If I were you, I’d capitalize the appropriate letters and use correct punctuation, and see what happens. I know it may seem petty, but those types of errors get moderated because it makes the questions difficult to read. If the whole site was filled up with them, no one would bother with answering them.

@sandystrachan I believe your title could be a bit more concise. Those words take up a lot of space on the front page. What about, “Why are my waffles so salty?” That is enough to draw in the attention of cooks and waffle lovers alike. In the details is where you elaborate when and where you made the waffles, what you made them with, and your general thoughts.

Pointless asking it now anyway

@sandy: Could you post the recipe for us? Right now, the baking soda thing makes sense. If you had to add baking soda to the recipe, that could make them salty. Maybe it called for a teaspoon, and you added a tablespoon?

Yeah, the problem has to revolve around the question being phrased as nearly netspeak/chatspeak. Not the worst offense I’ve ever seen, but the lack of caps and punctuation does make your concerns trying to easily understand.

I can’t imagine anyone’s picking on you. It’s just a nudge for you to communicate with us in a way that is effective for all of us, and keeps the standards of this site high.

175g Flour, 300ml Milk, 1 tsp Baking powder, 2 eggs, 50g Un-salted Butter and 2 Tbsp sugar.
It asked for more baking powder, but i used less.
iI used a waffle machine, non-stick so no extra grease

Well that’s a pickle if ever I saw one. As the tree said to the lumberjack, “I’m stumped.” Are you sure there wasn’t any residue on your waffle iron from something else? (I don’t know what else there would be on your waffle iron other than waffles, but you never know.)

Brand new waffle machine 1st use, was washed and dried

It does not look like there is any salt being added by the ingredients, so the next step is to look at what else touches those waffles before they are in your belly.

Perhaps you use an oil spray to coat the waffle maker?
Could there be any salty residue on the machine or your workstation?

Hmm. Perhaps it was because the machine was totally new then, maybe there was some factory residue left on after you washed it?

I would try a different waffle recipe to further isolate what the salty cause could be!

As stated with ingredients, i use no extra grease also there is no salt in my house

Did you have someone else taste it? It’s possible that what you think is a “salty” taste, isn’t really.

Maybe if you regularly use no salt at all, the salty taste of the baking soda was prominent to your sensitive taste?

The question was moderated because it wasn’t a question. @dynamicduo‘s correction solved the problem.

The reason your waffles were so salty is that you mistook salt for sugar. Two tablespoons of salt would cause the effect you are talking about. Yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck!

@bythebay Right, that’s what I was trying to get at.

@daloon – it’s Coal Miner’s Daughter all over again, isn’t it?

@daloon Where does it say i used that much salt?
Does salt come in a sugar cane bag from a shop?

[Mod says] The answers given above as to why your question was returned to you for editing are mostly correct. Proper capitalization, spelling, spacing, grammar and sentence structure are essential to clear written communication. Here at Fluther, we’re pretty serious about it. :)

@sandystrachan: It’s just a theory. People mistake one thing for another, and are absolutely positive they didn’t make the mistake. It happens. Unless your tastebuds are extraordinarily sensitive, I don’t think baking powder can account for what you tasted. I could be wrong. I happened once before.

Hey, if Loretta Lynn can make that mistake, I’d wager you’re capable of it too, missy!
