What You Should Know

You'd find this large container on the spices/seasonings shelf or tucked into a pantry — a utilitarian staple you grab for everyday cooking, baking, or when stocking up. It feels practical and essential rather than indulgent, evoking routine home cooking. The fine texture and listed anticaking agents (magnesium carbonate, magnesium oxide, yellow prussiate of soda) reflect minor industrial processing to keep the salt free‑flowing, consistent with a processed culinary ingredient rather than a formulated ultra‑processed product.
