Ingredients, origin & label information

SEA SALT.

Transcribed from the photographed package. No other ingredient is listed; this is not independent testing of composition or purity. Package source

The package says made from sea brine without naming a country or saltworks. Mariano’s calls it Mediterranean in one product bullet; that retailer wording is not verified origin evidence for this jar.

Still to establish

  • Who produces the salt, and at which saltworks?
  • Where is this jar packed, and who is the actual manufacturer or importer?
  • Can the retailer’s Mediterranean wording be supported by a product-specific origin statement?
  • Which Mariano’s branch and observation/purchase date does the shelf tag document?
