Seeing this talking point has inspired me start writing an article on Ital Food (A2818776).
Ital food is food that complies with rastafarian teachings. It is mostly vegetarian (although some stretch the limits to include fish) and prohibits the use of preservatives and processed foods . . . not even salt is allowed. Methods of preparation are natural as well - utensils made from natural materials and avoiding aluminium.
Its very tasty food because they use 100% natural ingredients, lots of herbs, spices, peas, nuts, coconut milk, etc.

They believe that aluminium can enter the body from traces in food and ingested aluminium its thought to be quite harmful (there's a link between aluminium and alzheimer's).
I don't think there is any proof that aluminium can enter the body through utensils but there's a lot of things that people believe that haven't been proven.
Most table salt is highly processed has chemical additives and very little of the original trace minerals. It is alo bleached to appear brilliant white.
Sea salt may be acceptable though . . . I'm not sure.
