Be warned: Sea salt does not contain iodine, which is an essential... Nutrient? Or something. You need it.
I have a thing of sea salt that I use for anywhere I will be tasting the salt directly (Popcorn, on chocolate chip cookies, et cetera), and a thing of normal iodized salt that I use for when I just need something to be salty.
Sea salt is good, but it's a finishing salt, to put on top of things, or in a way that leaves the salt pretty much intact and noticable. You don't want to spend extra money when it is just going to be thrown into a stew, you want to use it when you can really taste the difference.

I did a lot of posting on here as a teenager, and I was pretty awful. Even after I learned, grew up, and came to be on the right side of a lot of important issues, I was still angry, abrasive, and generally increased the amount of hate in the world, in pretty unacceptable ways. On the off chance that someone is taking a trip down memory lane looking through those old threads, I wanted to devote my signature to say directly to you, I'm sorry.
Thank you for letting me be better, NPF.
