Description

Sodium chloride crystals prepared for use as a food seasoning and preservative. Table salt contains Sodium chloride with small amounts of a free-flowing agent (1% Calcium silicate or Magnesium carbonate), an anti-caking agent (Sodium ferrocyanide), an iodizing salt (about 0.1% Potassium iodide or Sodium iodide) and an iodide stabilizer (0.1% Sodium carbonate and 0.1% Sodium thiosulfate).
