Rubidium is not a component of table salt.
Sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) form to make table salt.
Na (Sodium) is combined with Cl (Chlorine) to make NaCl (table salt).
Table salt is a pure substance. It is combined in such a way that it is uniform and definite in composition.

Pure rubidium wouldn't be something to taste - it's explosively reactive with, well, just about everything. However, rubidium when it is in a compound with a halogen (like chlorine, or fluorine) makes a salt, and it will taste salty/bitter and appear like a white granular solid (like table salt.)

You grind a bit of wood off the table and mix it with ordinary salt, voila you have table salt!
