Lime Sea Salt

Lime sea salt is a seasoning made by combining sea salt with lime flavoring or dried lime zest. Sea salt is harvested from evaporated seawater, and lime adds a bright, citrusy flavor.

It is used to add a salty and tangy flavor to a variety of foods. Manufacturers often include it in snacks like chips, pretzels, and seasoned nuts, as well as in marinades and rubs for meats and vegetables.

Sea salt and lime are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as food ingredients. While salt intake should be moderated for overall health, lime sea salt at typical consumption levels is not associated with specific health risks. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated salt and its components, but no specific numeric limits are relevant here. Evidence does not suggest significant health concerns from lime sea salt in a balanced diet.
