When I first moved out of my parents home when I was in my 20’s, I was still using salt, which I been brought up to do. The first winter living on my own in Cape Town, South Africa where winters tend to be very damp, the dampness caused the salt to solidify. Instead of trying to solve the salt dampness problem, I just stopped using it and discovered what food really tastes like. However, in spite of having added no salt to anything for about 30 years, I have very high blood pressure - seems to be a genetic problem.

The old southern solution to that was to put dried rice in the salt. It's nature's dessicant, lol. I didn't know table salt came any other way as a kid.
