Why is sea salt called sea salt?
In many cases, the two words "sea" and "ocean" are used to mean the same thing. Just as a "sea captain" actually sails on the ocean, "sea salt" really means salt coming from the ocean. There are technical differences between a "sea" and and "ocean" but these are not adhered to in nontechnical, normal daily language. When it comes to salt, the stuff one buys in the store as "sea salt" is likely to be from a sea and not an ocean. The salt gotten by evaporation from inland seas is often closer to pure sodium chloride than salt gotten directly from the ocean which is 78% sodium chloride.
