star-schipp	Posted - Sep 15 2010 : 11:56:58 AM I'm pretty sure that salt can't spoil - don't have any data on that but I don't know of a bacteria that could live in a dry salt environment We can do no great things; only small things with great love - Mother Teresa Star - farmgirl sister #1927
acairnsmom	Posted - Sep 15 2010 : 11:47:34 AM Does canning salt go bad? Someone gave me a big jar of canning salt. I would imagine it's over 10 years old. Audrey Toto, we're not in Kansas any more!

quiltin mama	Posted - Sep 14 2010 : 11:50:43 AM Since sea salt isn't iodized and isn't "table salt" it sounds like it would be fine then? my blog www.mountainhomequilts.blogspot.com handmade quilts on etsy www.mountainhomequilts.etsy.com
star-schipp	Posted - Sep 14 2010 : 11:18:51 AM It is salt with iodine like Amy said but it also does not have a "flowing" agent that table salt has which can separate out and be a white deposit in the bottom of the jar when you can.

MrsRooster	Posted - Sep 14 2010 : 10:41:35 AM It is salt without iodine. It can turn pickles brown. www.mrsrooster.blogspot.com Farmgirl #1259
