  Salt makes things taste better.

    Ok, so it’s just a taste thing in this particular case, and not some other logistical thing like preservation?

      The amount used on nuts you buy is for taste, preserving things in salt uses far more salt than that.

  Animals don’t do a very good job and tend to eat more than they salt
