    Seriously, the reason for the expiration date is pure salt draws moisture even though packaged and starts to cake. Most people don’t want lumpy salt, thus the expiration date.

      Honestly the sea salt I have I have to basically dry out in a cup.

      I’m pretty sure they add like 1-2% moisture by weight. I’ve literally weighed it during the last few days and it’s lost >5g from my measured 460g. That’s around 1%. I’ll see if it loses more.
