I expected that Tesla got a patent on table salt and that some crazy Tesla fan (not every Tesla fan is crazy, but some are, as it happens with fans almost universally) is actually trying to sell it as a good thing.
- simonh 5y agoIt's fantastic because the revenue Tesla gets from everyone licensing table salt will be used to massively expand electric car production and shift us away from fossil fuels.
- davrosthedalek 5y agoI saw a salt package recently which was labeled "Urmeersalz" = "primeval see salt". It was a bag of rock salt.
- rbanffy 5y agoIt’s like sodium and chlorine atoms could have a pedigree… :-D
- gerikson 5y agoTechnically correct as rock salt was formed by the evaporation of ancient seas.
- davrosthedalek 5y agoYes, the best kind of correct. But it also really plays nicely with the common notion that Sea salt > Rock salt
- simonh 5y agoA lot of people who used to buy sea salt have switched to rock salt due to fear of micro plastics, so marketing it as related to sea salt is smart.
