  • The **Electric Salt Spoon**, launched by Japanese company **Kirin** at **CES 2025**, allows low-sodium foods to taste saltier without added salt.
  • This device helps reduce sodium consumption, a key health concern, especially in Japan, where sodium intake exceeds recommended levels.
  • Aimed to assist consumers in maintaining flavor, the spoon uses **mild electrical stimulation** to enhance saltiness perception.
  • The technology, recognized by the **2023 Ig Nobel prize**, operates through a weak electrical current that interacts with sodium ions on the tongue.
  • While effective with liquids like soups and sauces, it requires manual cleaning and works best with food that has some salt content.
