Why do companies pre-salt noodles anyway?

tsukikageI love raw pasta.
However, the udon I'm munching on is pre-salted. Highly.
And really, it tastes pretty nasty and is making me feel a bit sick.
So why am I continuing to eat it?
For the record, when I cook pasta I never add salt to the water, so the pre-salting is pretty pointless.
[EDIT: The Onion: Evangelical Scientists Refute Gravity With New 'Intelligent Falling' Theory
""Anti-falling physicists have been theorizing for decades about the 'electromagnetic force,' the 'weak nuclear force,' the 'strong nuclear force,' and so-called 'force of gravity,'" Burdett said. "And they tilt their findings toward trying to unite them into one force. But readers of the Bible have already known for millennia what this one, unified force is: His name is Jesus.""
Hah!]
