    It's probably just some garbage that some marketing idiot put there under the delusion that it would sell better.

      30% less sodium, 30% less chloride too They've probably cut it with brick dust or concrete powder or something, in true drug trafficker tradition

            They have replaced the NaCl with something else, normally KCl as Mad Monk said.

              Yeah, I wasn't been serious...it probably contains more KCl in it.

                NaCl with 30% less sodium =

                Na+ + Cl- <---> NaCL

                x(Na) + y(Cl) <---> 1(NaCl)

                x = 1 - y
                x - 0.3 = 1
                y = 1.3
                x = 0.7

                0.7(Na) + (1.3Cl) <---> 0.7(NaCl) + 0.6(Cl) = Clorox bleach

                  Yeah, go KCl!

                  I wanted to switch to the healthy salt for ages.

                      Lifesalt!

                      This salt contains lots of KCl and MgSO4 to replace the NaCl, but the best part is:

                        soon, there will be no sodium. Just powdered chlorine....

                          I checked the label again, it says "30% less Sodium per Teaspoon". However, checking the ingredients list, the second largest ingredient was not KCl. It was SILICON DIOXIDE. That's right, SAND. KCl didn't even come in third, that position went to MgSO4.

                            So, the natural and "chemical-free" label actually means that it is full of impurities. It's a lower grade than normal salt, but they use that as an argumant to sell it to the ignorant consumers who believe it's a better product.

                              Just use a 30% less normal salt! (or none, which is what I do, no need to add salt to anything these days the amount they put in everything).

                                Exactly!
