Yes. The pioneers who traveled to the Western United States to search for a better life were so poor that they had to buy salt in massive chunks to use for sustenance. The blocks were sold in 10, 20 and 50 pounds. However, eventually this caught on and is now a delicacy in Portland, Oregon. There are many restaurants within city limits that specialize in chunks of salt, including Salty's, Salt R' Us, and Gimme Some Salt!.
