At least it doesn’t say organic… since salt is an inorganic compound and that’d be straight up silly.
Except that, in food, “organic” just means no pesticides or synthetic chemicals were used in making it.
No fillers, just two ingredients: iodized sodium and potassium chloride.
Isn’t that what all salt is? When they put stuff like that on a product like salt it starts to lose meaning and is clearly a marketing gimmick aimed at health conscious people.
I’m not okay with taking advantage of people who want to be healthy. As with everything marketing its about stretching the truth to outright lying and it seriously needs to be more regulated so words like organic actually mean something to consumers and we know what we’re buying. If they want to lable salt as organic, it should say “uses organic cornstarch as an anti-caking agent.” The cornstarch is organic, not the salt itself because it can’t be.
No, they replaced half of the sodium chloride with potassium chloride. It really is half salt. No one is being taken advantage of.
There are a lot of words on packaging that are unregulated, but “organic” isn’t one of them. If they use it, it has to mean what the FDA says it means, and that’s not the opposite of inorganic.
