Hard-to-Find Sal de Maras Pink Salt -Not Himalayan

This is a completely different salt from common Himalayan pink salt. ✔ Difference in origin • Himalayan Pink Salt: Rock salt formed from ancient seabed deposits, mined from solid salt rock • Sal de Maras: A living artisanal sea salt made by naturally evaporating mineral-rich spring water in the high Andes of Peru using sunlight ✔ Difference in formation • Himalayan salt → Mined and mechanically crushed • Maras salt → Underground saltwater + sun evaporation in thousands of traditional salt ponds → Resulting in a much softer, smoother, and less harsh saltiness ✔ Taste & usability • Rounded, gentle saltiness • Suitable not only for cooking but also for: • Gargling • Nasal rinsing • Salt-water drinking • Mineral replenishment during fasting • Preferred for body-care use due to low irritation to mucous membranes ✔ Mineral profile • Naturally contains iron, magnesium, potassium, and other trace minerals • Less aggressive sodium impact, making it suitable for sensitive individuals ✔ Rarity (key point) • Very difficult to find in Canadian local stores • Mostly available through South America, travel, or direct import • Unlike common Himalayan pink salt, it is rarely seen on the market
