310.WHEN DID MAN BEGIN TO USE SALT?

Different people seem to have different needs for salt. On the whole, most people all over the world today use salt in their food. But what about the people in primitive times who weren’t able to find any salt near them? They simply got along without it!

 

The fact is, salt was unknown in many parts of America and India until it was introduced by Europeans. There are still parts of central Africa where salt is such a luxury that only the rich can afford it.
