For real though:

Candies
Cocktails
As a fresh garnish in other drinks too
Brewed into its own tea
On a steak
Salsa
Salad
The top flavor of toothpaste or mouthwash
Pesto
As a garnish on desserts
With some taters
With fresh fruit
To ail an upset stomach
Air freshener
Essential oil
Apparently also useful for skin care, bug repellent, and to repel fleas and rodents


Am I forgetting any?

Salt is like a thing that’s used to add to the flavor of everything. It’s right there on the table!

It’s considered a “flavor” in the sense that’s one of the things your tongue senses, but it’s rarely listed on a menu as a flavor in itself.

I’m not saying it’s not a flavor, just that the folks might get a little confused if offered salt candy or salt tea or salt salad.
