The inaccuracies aside (about them inventing the phrase whole cloth), it's a nice piece about advertising.
Anecdotally, I tend to use salt without the anti caking additives because I have a salt wasting condition, so I'm on a doctor prescribed high salt diet. When I've suggested sea salt to others with my condition, they have just lost their minds that it clumps and looks funny.
Historically, that was the norm for salt. It seems like a weird thing to be so hung up on, given the seriousness of the condition.
- Swizec 4y agoHaving grown up on a sea salt diet near the Mediterranean – put some rice grains in your salt shaker and other containers. It draws moisture and prevents clumping (to an extent). And hey if it does clump just bang it hard on the table.
- chiph 4y agoIn the Southern US that has been the practice for a long time (also a hot & humid environment!). The rice grains are too large to pass through the holes in the shaker but will sometimes clog them, so you have to shake a bit harder.
- renox 4y agoHow about just using a 'moulin a sel' to avoid the clumping?
