You've probably cooked with it or eaten it, but do you know where it comes from? Usually visible only from planes, trains, and bridges, this Bay Area operation provides everything from sea salt to road salt. John Bartell visited the Cargill salt ponds in Newark, California to take a look at the multi-year process for harvesting salt.
