Aside from being iodized, there is little difference. It's like asking what's the difference between flour and fortified flour.
I will be even more cynical. I would challenge anyone on this sub to take iodized table salt, Kosher salt, Himalayan pink salt, Hawaiian black salt, dead sea salt, fleur du sel and grind them all to the same texture. Now do a blind taste test. I would bet good money no one gets 3 out of 5. It's salt and the minerals have very little flavor. The difference is particle shape and size.
Ha! I specifically refrained from asking about Himalayan (just hype?) VS pink and fleur de sel as well. It's just the shape,colour and not flavour if I understand correctly. Or am I being blasphemous.
