User: Are iodized salt and kosher salt the same?
Assistant: No, they are two different types of salt.  Iodized salt has additives and is processed into smaller uniform grains meant to be free-flowing, typically for use in salt shakers, it’s also commonly referred to as table salt.  Kosher salt is generally used during cooking or for brining and curing food, and has a larger grain size then iodized salt.
