Haiku Poem: Himalayan Salt

Himalayan salt.

Mined deep within the Earth’s crust.

Sprinkled on my food.

Did you know Himalayan salt comes from a thick geological layer called Ediacaran? Geologists date this layer to be around 94 million years old. Whenever you sprinkle this salt to enhance the flavor of your food, just remember these crystals are capsules of ancient history. Simply astonishing!
