YES we are talking about taste. There seems to be some confusion about what low sodium salt or salt substitutes are. They are about producing the "taste" of salt to foods without salt or with less salt relative to taste. It's not as you put it, OFFC, salt that's had it's "life essence" removed. I can't fathom what your referring to by some kind of "life essence" property of salt. As far as I know there is no life essence part of salt (NaCl) that can be removed, either in part or whole from it. Table salt is a compound composed of two elements, Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl).
"TABLE SALT"
It is essential for animal life in small quantities, but is harmful to animals and plants in excess. |
The words "essential" and "excess" are not there in the above statement for nothing but are required to convey a proven fact.
| Salt substitutes are low-sodium table salt alternatives marketed to circumvent the risk of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease associated with a high intake of sodium chloride[1] while maintaining a similar taste. They usually contain mostly potassium chloride (note, NOT "Sodium Chloride"). Potassium lactate may also be used to reduce sodium levels in food products. ,,,, Seaweed granules are also marketed as alternatives to salt. ,,,,,Potassium chloride may have a metallic taste to some. |
I hope this clears things up.

| Right so now you've hijacked this thread and turned it into a discussion about the taste of different salts. Sorry for trying to get the discussion back on topic. |

Seems to me this topic has wandered very little as compared to our usual standards (which are quite liberal about diversions).
Here, the subject has remained SALT, and the discussion about its healthy and unhealthy aspects, its various sources. IMO, a discussion of the taste of table salt substitutes is nothing resembling a hijacking. Discussing the taste of salt substitutes doesn't derail the thread any more than questioning how salt's elan vital may have been stolen. (And note, nobody criticized you, OFfC, as being a hijacker for bringing in the odd subject of vitalism.) |

It actually has life essence added at the rate of 50% of the reduction in sodium. Where it gets this life essence is where it takes it from you when you consume it.
You can get nearly pure, highly life energy charged low sodium salt from your local pool supply store. |

| I don't know but as far as I'm concerned the only reason why people even use salt is for it's flavoring properties. I really didn't think it was that far off the topic but I'm sorry it upset you OFFC, it was not intentional. |

Of course. What's your point? If you believe you have some kind of argument going with me, I'd appreciate knowing what it is. |
