No. a salt is just a metallic ion and a non metallic ion combine through an acid neutralization reaction. Different salts all taste different and all five basic tastes are covered by salts (i.e. sweet, salty, sour, bitter, savoury). for example lead diacetate has a sweet test, however it is harmful to digest it. the term salty (as in the taste) refers to the taste of sodium chloride (common table salt). hope this helped :)
