You can taste the difference between table salt and either sea or kosher salt. Most table salt has iodine in it which subtly affects the taste. I often use kosher salt when cooking, but still use regular table salt for seasoning already cooked foods. Iodine is an important dietary substance so iodized salt should not be completely eliminated from your diet.

My French sea salt, extra fine, is iodized. Don't know if the coarse crystals are. I use kosher salt for all my other salt. Though I like salty things, I don't salt my food at the table or use very much of it at all.
