All cooking salts are salty, not all salts are. Gipsum is a salt, but has no discernable taste at all. It is so bland that it is used as a filler and bulker in some food items, and its natural fire resistant properties make it perfect for drywall.

Do all salts taste salty?

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 :)
