Am I way wrong here, or is it not possible to setup industrial processes to yield NaCl at very, very, very high purity? Is that somehow far inferior or noticeably different to 'normal' table salt and noticeably different from the salts produced in video?

I certainly noticed a difference between coarse Kosher and regular salt when cooking, but I always attributed it to grain size and possible desirable extra minerals in one or the other...

Yeah, but once you get to a certain purity it turns blue and you have to start wearing a pork pie hat.

Talk about posh! Meanwhile Lowe's has 50lb bags of the stuff for 8 bucks - you can't beat that. Makes any meal just melt in your mouth.

That's it, I'm leading a march to the sea to make salt. We can't let the cute little Morton girl with the umbrella's tyranny go unchallenged.

buy local - that's the main takeaway here!

Except we all eat too much salt anyway. Just sticking below the recommended 2300mg a day is tough for me, and I don't add salt to any of my meals, plus I eat fairly bland stuff in general. It's pretty surprising.

That's a lot of Cocaine

IN a blind test, would they be able to tell it apart?

That's a really good question If not, they're all wasting their time.

I think it should be possible, unless they have managed to purify it too much.

Someone needs to arrange this test... for science!
