Salt is probably the most disgusting thing on this planet. You literally are eating a fucking rock that tastes like shit. The reason why it was deemed so valuable is because it plays with your senses and tastebuds just like other products that were also seen as valuable such as sugar and tobacco. We don't eat rocks because humans are not fucking plants. You are supposed to get your minerals and electrolytes from your diet, NIGGA.
Salt is so essential that people used to use it as cash, nigger.
