Hmm, I'm wondering if this is the reason that Brittany sea salt is so
valuable; there are no added condiments as described.

"As water naturally evaporates out of shallow costal pools, salt
crystals slowly form. The task of harvesting this salt is done
entirely by hand using traditional Celtic methods. No mechanical
machinery is ever used and no metal ever touches the salt. Nothing is
added and nothing is removed. This time consuming and labor-intensive
process produces a superior sea salt."
