I swear I'm one of the few people that exist that doesn't like the flavor of salt...not particularly fond of overly sweet flavors either

In both cases, it's something where your tastes depend a lot on what you're used to. Americans have actually evolved a greater collective preference for sweeter foods than other populations, just because so much of their diet is sweetened (and that preference leads to a demand for more sweetening). If you tend not to put much salt or sugar in your food at home, eating out pretty much anywhere is going to be a bit overwhelming in that regard because they're catering to the tastes of the public. I also tend to under-salt my food compared to what many others are used to, so I get where you're coming from.
