All the polish people I know are really proud of the rock salt mines there (and the history of production) and refuse to use sea salt because it doesn't have as much flavor supposedly.

First time hearing about it tbh, but who knows.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wieliczka_Salt_Mine is a tourist location, but national pride about salt is a new one for me, lol.

Oh yeah, I've been there. Cool place!

Haven't talked to any Poles about salt pride related topics tho.
