On the fence about this

On one hand, I totally agree that there is nothing magic about sea salt, and in fact there is nothing especially magical about Celtic sea salt. Any sea salt will do. And sea salt does not contain significant amounts of iodine, which is added to regular table salt to prevent goiter.

On the other hand, sea salt does contain a lot of trace elements that more refined salt does not. And it generally is felt to taste better. And refined salts often have anti-caking agents added.

I don't believe that there is anything magical about sea salt, or french sea salt in particular. I think it's probably a good thing to have in the diet on account of the trace minerals, but I also try and use iodized salt as well, on account of the iodine.

Moderation and balance.
