And in my store, there's a small collection of Kosher things. I can only get Kosher Salt. It's best salt.

There's such a thing as non-kosher salt?

So I had a discussion with an Ebionite online earlier today.

Let me just say...it certainly was interesting. They certainly live up to their name when it comes to bashing Paul.

True, but it's Kosher.It has to be prepared in a special way, other wise it isn't Kosher, and those, for example Hasidics, don't use it.

You haven't tasted salt until you've tasted kosher salt. Fact.

It's the chosen salt.

It's to remove blood from meat when used on meats.

No! That makes the meat kosher, but salt has no requirements that make it necessary to get 'kosher salt'.

Not to mention it's different to table or sea salt.

What if you want salt for it's flavour?

Kosher salt is still good for it's flavor. It's one of the three main salts you would find.
Really, it should be called Koshering Salt, because you're making something Kosher; but regardless, you would also get another type of salt if you wanted another flavor. It does have a flavor though.

A better question would be what makes salt unkosher.

Kosher salt is slightly different from normal salt, although pure salt is always kosher. What makes kosher salt different is the size of the grains, they are much larger, and are thus better at drawing out blood.
