Fun fact. The things you guys buy that are labeled "Himalayan" are actually Pakistani.

Yes, 'Himalayan' and 'Pakistani' are not mutually exclusive. It is in Pakistan amongst other countries but the products aren't actually from the Himalayas.

Himalayan pink salt/rocks? That's from khewra salt mines, formed from ancient sea deposits crystalised millions of years ago. Which is in Punjab. All pink salt is mined here, not some, all.

Those Himalayan salt lamps? Not from the Himalayas.

The only reason behind this is racism lol. Nobody bought these products until they rebranded it from Pakistani to Himalayan. Then it suddenly had healing properties and vibrational energy, enough to power a whole community of yoga mum's on Facebook to rave about. All I need is me and my not-himalayan rocks. Stay blessed my little Earth Angels ✨🙏

I didn't know about the background. 😲 From now on I'll relabel my Himalayan salt to Punjabi salt 😌

I can absolutely see that rebranding work in America. Especially since im sure a lot of people here don’t even know where the Himalayas are.
Mine stopped working after reading this post, THANKS.

That’s how it’s marketed and packaged here in the USA.

Lol. Always read the product labels. You could have fooled me.

There's pink salt here in these America lands. People stop flying your salt around the world
@faery sea salt is from sea water, Himalayan pink salt is from ancient sea beds specific to the salt mountain range. Vast difference.

"Sorry our orientalist racist myth making is very different between Pakistan and *waves hands vaguely* wise Buddhist place with ancient knowledge"
