So what's so great about Sea Salt?

[Parrot Head]

I'm seeing sea salt everywhere. Mrs. PH came home with sea salt brownies from Trader Joe's, I see it sold separately and I even saw a Ben & Jerry's flavor that advertised sea salt. Should I change the way I see salt?

I started a thread once about the new French Fries advertised at Wendy's that feature sea salt.

You were wrong about the fries, though.

No, he wasn't. Same sucky fries with sea salt and some potato skin on there.

I don't get it either, but chocolate brownies with sea salt sound delicious. Sweet and salty... Mmmm.

the salt enhances the flavor of the chocolate, makes it more . . . chocolaty.

Nothing. What is really annoying is when patients who are supposed to be restricting their sodium tell you "don't worry I only use sea salt ".

I do remember the Sofia Vergara character on Modern Family putting salt in her chocolate milk to enhance the flavor. We keep saying we're going to try it, but only remember it as we're putting away the empty glass.

And, of course, this is a gratuitous opportunity to post a pic of her, but I will resist the urge.

No, what you really want is a clip of her mixing salt into the chocolate milk.

I believe there was some discussion on the board about that scene, but the conversation focused not on what she was mixing, but how she was mixing it. Very rhythmical.

edit: I see MG beat me to it. To add something, I'll post this:

I think its become popular ever since Al Pacino started sporting a goiter. Our American cult of celebrity and all.
