    Team sea salt here, because I like the taste and texture better as a chef.

    I get my iodine from my daily multivitamin.

          The Murray Darling Basin is part of this natural geographic of the land, where an ancient inland ocean once flourished. Ocean sediments, the weathering of rocks and rainfall over millions of years formed the Murray/Darling Basin’s landscapes and rivers.

          Still originally sea salt, just like all the other mined salts.

            Didn’t realise the ocean ever came up that far - it’s very inland. I stand corrected…The more you know!

            That’s fair, except I did read the page that I posted which contains details about the harvest site that only mentions the underground source and does not make any statements about the ocean.

            Given the article above, and coupled with the knowledge that Mildura is definitely not near the ocean (in this millennium), it seemed reasonable to assert that that the salt was not derived from the ocean.

            So yeah, I did read the link that I posted, but it did not mention that the salt deposits literally hundreds of kilometers inland originated from the ocean millions of years ago.

            I withdraw my original statement, and hope you have a swell day. :)
