where can you get good salt cheap

[mascarakatze]

iodized or non iodized. sea salt or non sea salt

[angiud]

Sea salt taste and smell good, the others smell chemical.

Avoid the Himalaya or other esoteric salts, they are just overpriced NaCl

We or friends bring salt by the kilos from Nan province, a little village called "Bo Kluea" (N19 08 52 E101 09 15)(http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g1531810-d2723704-Reviews-Bo_Klua_Salt_Wells-Bo_Kluea_Nan_Province.html), and share it.

The villagers over there extract it from deep underground wells, and you can buy it undiluted (what we personally prefere) or with iodine added.

Since salt is hygroscopic it must be stored hermetically sealed otherwise it will become pappy.

What people don't realize is that ALL salt is sea salt. No salt has ever been found anywhere in the world where there wasn't once an ocean. Beware the marketers that tell you their product is "Now made with sea salt". They are just praying on ignorance to help them sell more of a certain product.

From a salt cellar seller. Sorry couldn`t resist it.

Try the Rim Ping supermarket, the store near the airport. They sell all kinds of salt in there, including sea salt, you name it, they have it.

Almost any local public market with the dry goods vendors usually on the perimeter carries a crude local salt that is mined. The local salt here in the north is from Mae Rim and sells for 10thb/kilo and contains no iodine. It's the salt that they coat the BBQ fish with, and I use it for curing my smoked meat.

Perhaps he's referring to bath salts, would explain a lot.
