WTB Large Salt Rock as seen on Good Eats
 
My wife loves salt.

Recently Alton Brown's Good Eats devoted a show to the rock. He had several
softball sized rocks on screen. At one time, my wife jokingly went
MMMMMMMmmmmm.

Anyone know where I can purchase something like that for Mother's Day?

I've tried FoodTV, and Alton Brown's website and keep getting a lot of
runaround.

Thanks

Seriously? SERIOUSLY??

You're going to buy your wife a salt lick for Mother's Day?

Good luck with THAT!

Go on eBay and search for "Halite". For example, look at item number
6524332004.

Best regards,

You can also get a naturally pink rock salt, called Pink Halite. But
don't eat it. Some of it comes from dried lakebeds in California's
Mojave Desert. The pink color comes from algae. The Pink Halite also
may have other compounds such as potash mixed with it. One source for
Pink Halite is EBay:
