These plants are in the poison ivy family (as are mango, cashew, pistachio), thus some people may have an allergic reaction to them if they are sensitive (similar to the reaction some get from mango skins). Pink peppercorns may also be from the Baies rose plant (Euonymus phellomanus, unrelated to poison ivy), but these are less commonly seen... pink peppercorns purchased in the USA (including those in mixed pepper blends) are usually from Schinus molle or S. terebinthefolius).

I live in OH. I dont use iodized salt. I have been looking into iodine suplementation since a few people I know have developed thyroid disorders. I eat seaweed but not everyday, so I would like a supplement. Rick & SoG I know all about it! I live in OH. I dont use iodized salt.

It may be the easiest way for people to get idodine but i don't think it is the best. I recently emailed Mark about wether I needed idodized salt or not because iodized salt (even sea salt) usually comes with other chemicals and anti-caking agents too. I get a lot of iodine from sources like sea vegetables so I don't really need the crap in iodized salt... I prefer to stick to straight sea salt myself. The SoG Rick and Tara,

So, here at least, it is important to get some iodine and iodized salt is the easiest way to do it for most folks. some of our stores carry a variety of Haines sea salt which is iodized.
