A packet of regular table salt costs less than a dollar at the grocery store — but in upscale restaurants, a sprinkle of flake salt can raise the price of a steak by ten dollars or more. 🧂🍅🥪
A crystal smaller than a grain of rice suddenly carries the value of silver. Why does flake salt cost many times more than the salt we use every day? Today, we’ll follow the journey inside the factory to uncover the answer — and see how the world’s favorite condiments come to life.
From ocean brine to bottled ketchup and creamy mayonnaise, Captain Discovery explores how everyday staples are refined, mixed, and packaged to perfection in How It’s Made: Sea Salt, Heinz Ketchup, Hellmann’s Mayonnaise.
