Lime And Sea Salt

Lime and sea salt is a flavor combination made from lime, a citrus fruit, and sea salt, which is salt obtained from evaporated seawater. Lime provides a tart, citrusy taste, while sea salt adds a briny, savory flavor.

This combination is primarily used as a flavoring agent to add a tangy and savory profile to foods. It is commonly found in snacks like chips and pretzels, as well as in seasonings for various dishes.

Both lime and sea salt are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as food ingredients. Sea salt is primarily sodium chloride, and a high intake of sodium is associated with increased blood pressure. The FDA's Daily Value for sodium is 2,300 mg. JECFA has evaluated sodium chloride. Lime is a natural food and does not have specific health concerns at typical consumption levels.
