All you need to do is find a way to get 10 million birds per acre to eat 'em. If it weren't for pesticides, you wouldn't be losing an occasional crop, you would be losing a lot of them.

Remove the walrus snot and fish pee, and some other things (refining), and the result is identical to Morton refined salt. What do you mean by "chemical" salt?
