Then how could it lose its flavor?

Please don’t think me flippant. I’m a believer in God. I don’t think He minds questions so long as they’re serious. Israel means to struggle with God.

By dilution or contamination.

I guess I should apologize for being somewhat flippant in my reply #13. Jesus was referencing salt metaphorically as a teaching to His followers, specifically John, if I remember correctly. The teaching is about behavior and actions, not diet.

Nevertheless, He did say that salt was good, and the metaphor falls apart if this is not true.

BTW, FYI, the reference is to The Gospel Of Mark, Chapter 9.
