Best Answer

anything made with wheat flour dough tends to have a very 'bland' somewhat unpleasant flavour if a little bit of salt is not added. Seems counterintuitive to have salt (typically used in savoury dishes) added to a sweet product like cookies - but you probably don't want to eat the salt-free ones.
