i've always wondered why they don't sell evaporated salt.i would think it would have the perfect amount of everything in it,just add water.but since its not already being done there must be a reason.

They do/did ? I guess its still available ? Red sea mix it was from Israel totally dehydrated ocean salt from ocean water. _________ Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enough to know they were impossible (Doug Larson) | |
