....here's christian salt:

CRESAPTOWN, Md. - You've heard of kosher salt? Now there's a Christian
variety.

Retired barber Joe Godlewski says he was inspired by television chefs who
repeatedly recommended kosher salt in recipes.

"I said, 'What the heck's the matter with Christian salt?'" Godlewski said,
sipping a beer in the living room of his home in unincorporated Cresaptown,
a western Maryland mountain community.

By next week, his trademarked Blessed Christians Salt will be available at
http://www.memphi.net, the Web site of Memphis, Tenn.-based seasonings
manufacturer Ingredients Corporation of America.

It's sea salt that's been blessed by an Episcopal priest, ICA President
Damon S. Arney said Wednesday. He said the company also hopes to market the
salt through Christian bookstores and as a fundraising tool for religious
groups.

Arney and Godlewski, 73, said a share of the proceeds will be donated to
Christian charities, but neither would specify a percentage.
