Salt is useful for many purposes. To a person who likes to cook like me, the right amount of salt can make the difference between a meal tasting perfect and one tasting really bland. You can also oversalt which unfortunately makes a meal taste just as bad. In talking to his disciples on the Sermon on the Mount Jesus makes this interesting statement to them. He literally calls them salt. You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. – Matthew 5:13
