Are you salty or sweet?

So what's it gonna be? Do you prefer salty foods or sweet foods?
Can be a generality or which way you swing when snacking. Would you prefer a nice sweet cake or ice-cream to end a meal or a savory cheese plate?
In my pantry, I have about 5 different kinds of salt and 1 kind of sugar, so you can um, decide. :)
 
Can I add a third choice? I rarely use salt and detest fast foods for their over use of salt. Though I like sweet, it's seldom consumed and never craved. Now peppery stuff is another matter entirely. I love pepper and lots of it. My favorite desert is hot pepper cheese and crackers to give you some idea.
 
Suppose I'll clarify. I like properly seasoned foods, salt wise. All to often I'll eat at someone's house or out at a restaurant and I know they didn't add any salt (or enough), and it sucks the life out of the food. My palate leans high salt wise, and folks I eat with know this. I blame a lot of it on the highly seasoned food I ate at culinary school. :p
Sweet wise, despite being a pastry/baking concentration, I just don't go for them much. Dessert is something I rarely have, and like those that combine some savory ingredients into them as well.
 
Between the two I lean towards the sweet side, but I don't eat overly sweet foods often. It also depends on my mood, sometimes salty foods will hit the spot.
 
Definitely salty, especially when it comes to snacks. I don't have much of a sweet tooth. I'll take chips and dip or a nice soft pretzel over candy or desserts probably 90% of the time. Which is bad, because sodium is soooo bad for you.
