Cave Salt is a salt that's ten times the price of bamboo salt. Most of the cost comes from the labor intensive process of extracting Cave Salt. It can only be found in the deepest parts of a very dangerous underground cave system, where only a few expert cave divers can access. This cave system has a lot of mineral deposits, which gives Cave Salt its very famous aquamarine coloring. It's not sour, bitter, nor sweet. Shockingly, its taste is actually very salty. It also provides various health benefits.

The amount of intelligence and thought process put into developing such 'products' knowing there is no scarcity of stupid buyers in this world is actually genius. Take it with a pinch of salt.

On the mineral argument, you can just analyze the bamboo ash for trace of minerals then buy those mineral salt in bulk, dissolve with seasalt then recrystalize. A much more efficient process

I'm pretty sure that you could make salt with exactly the same composition for 1/100 of price of this one. I mean everything is basically melted at the last step, so why would you expect any organic material to be left? It's just salt with couple extra minerals.

This salt is the most blatant scam ever to anyone with a basic understanding of chemistry or biology. The amount of this salt you would need to consume to benefit from the minerals would counteract any benefit because you'd be consuming stupid amounts of salt. Far more sensible to just standard table or kosher salt and get the minerals and vitamins from other dietary sources.

Burning at 1000°C, there won't be any bamboo oil or organic nutrients from the bamboo left. 1000°C and organic ingredients contained in the bamboo just melt or burn down.That's a lot of bamboo for this.

@@angelaphsiao Actually, industrial grinders could make it much much more consistent, whatever size (chunks or powder) or structure (same size or different size) is desired, it's much better done by machines than by hand, it's all just depends on grinder's properties and a bit of automated sieving. This thing - it's just waste of money and time, as you can do pretty much same salt by mixing regular salt and ash, or better - with different kinds of salts, like a bit of potassium chlorine, tiny bit of iron oxide and calcium carbonate. Done. That'd be same salt, but without possibly undesired additives and compounds and way, way cheaper.

Do they really have to grind it by hand? Feels like a needless additional cost

So does it taste any better?

Bamboo salt is actually a modern invention btw. Its first producer states that, though it is true that something similar existed long time ago. Unfortunately this silly sounding bamboo salt is basically one of two ways of getting salt with decent purity as South Korean salt industry is heavily cartelized and even is heavy source of organized crime involving in forced labour that nobody tries to root out. South Western Island region, Shinahn is the biggest supplier of the salt for Korea and is extremely dangerous defacto slaver haven that nobody should enter. Those so called sea salts from that slaver islands are junks but boomers have myth of believing these junk salts as good salt. Because of serious impurity of salts, you have only two options for getting reasonable salt. Either buy factory produced pure salt that tastes indifferently, or buy that over priced bamboo salt which is a salt that literally burnt entire undesirables from junk salt from slaver lsles - with risk of having additional byproducts being added during processing. Regardless do not ask me why. You will never understand idiotic 'suspiciously wealthy' Korean boomers. They are the nations's biggest cancer.
