Himalayan Salt

I'm about to tell you something that's going to blow your mind.
Himalayan salt isn't Himalayan, not even close.
All that pink salt, rose salt, mountain crystal salt you see in stores, looks like it came straight from a snowy holy mountain.
In reality it comes from Pakistan.
All of it, no exceptions.
The real mining site is a giant pink tunnel.
Why don't they call it "Pakistan Salt"?
Because it wouldn't sell.
Let's be honest, the word Himalayan is worth more than salt itself.
Change the name, and the price jumps instantly.
Americans think they're buying a high altitude health mineral but it's really ancient sea sediment, a fossil salt from 200 million years ago.
You think you are eating luxury, but you're actually eating geology.
People believe it carries mountain energy but the mine is hundreds of miles away from the Himalayas.
Next time you sprinkle pink salt, remember you're not sprinkling Himalaya, you are sprinkling Pakistan's greatest marketing trick.
I just want to share that Himalayan Salt is from Pakistan.
I would eat it, but I prefer to buy sea salt.

我要告诉你一件会让你大开眼界的事。
喜马拉雅盐不是喜马拉雅，差得远了。
你在商店所见到的那些粉色盐、玫瑰盐、山晶盐，看上去就像是直接从白雪皑皑的神圣山峰上开采出来的。
实际上，它们都来自巴基斯坦。
全部都如此，没有例外。
真正的开采地点是一个巨大的粉色隧道。
为什么他们不叫它巴基斯坦盐呢？
因为那样卖不出去。
老实说，“喜马拉雅”这个词本身的价值就高于盐本身。
改个名字，价格瞬间跃升。
美国人认为他们买到的是高海拔的健康矿物质，但实际上那是古老的海沉积物，是 2 亿年前的化石盐。
你以为自己在享受奢华，但实际上是在品尝地质。
人们认为它蕴含着山的能量，但那个矿场却距离喜马拉雅山脉有数百英里之遥。
下次你撒盐的时候，记住你撒的不是来自喜马拉雅的盐，而是来自巴基斯坦最厉害的营销手段。
我想分享的是喜马拉雅盐来自巴基斯坦。
我倒是想吃它，但我更倾向于购买海盐。

WSo why don't they call it "Pakistan Salt"?
