What’s wrong with sea salt? It’s still salt.

I’ve got regular salt, Kosher salt & grainy sea salt.
I always thought of sea salt as one of the “good” salts.

[DJ MacWoW]

It may be a “good” salt but it changes the taste of the soup completely.

“I always thought of sea salt as one of the ?good? salts.”

I only use sea salt. Don’t know why other than a real course ground salt is yummy on meat. Chemical composition perhaps.. Don’t care. I love salt..

Cavemen didn't eat it.

Sea salt contains potassium and magnesium chlorides which
tast bitter

I use sea salt too. It’s about the only salt we have around the house. Maybe my taste buds are just not as sensitive as some folks, but I have never really noticed that much of a difference between different types of salt. It all just tastes salty to me.

[Elsiejay]

One must have an excruciatingly sensitive sense of taste to find sea salt objectionable, or even to be able to detect a difference between it and ordinary NaCl.

Me too. I love sea salt, in fact, it’s the only salt I use. If I buy canned soup I always look for the brands with sea salt. It is supposed to be healthier as far as salt goes.

Not only do I prefer regular sea salt on my food, I order 20lb bags of Dead Sea Salt to make bath salts from. It’s wonderful for the skin but it’s not for eating, just bathing.

[Twinkie]

Yup. Me, too. I order Celtic Sea Salt. It goes a long way because you don’t have to use as much and has minerals in it. I do take an organic iodine supplement because it’s not iodized, but I would think the sea salt should have iodine in it already.

You miss the point...it doesn't make any difference what you like or don't like...it is the overt supervision by some anonymous bureaucrat (or not so anonymous one: Mayor Blumberg, for example) or FLOUS (I hate to use that term, it is very deceptive!) that is objectionable to many of us. IOW, to the Government Nannies: keep you hands off our salt!

[cubreporter]

So do we.

Yas, and there is Mono sodium Glutamate which is also a salt.

I’m reading this thread and thinking the same thing. We use sea salt and I’ve never tasted a difference.
