My take
A few years ago I was the rep of an accused product (not salt though)... I've offered credits to retailers whom purchased the product, so they could refund their consumers as it cost less than the testing of said product . In the end it was not the product and another product was found to be at fault, but the forums had done their dirty work and the product had a bad rep. I don't even think it was made public what caused all the trouble but it was a member here who had the issues. Those credits were still issued and the product was not to blame. The internet , and forums can be nuts sometimes and turn things into a witchhunt.
Anyone reading this realizes that it is not conclusive, but might make sure to do an extra test or two of their salt before water changes which I would suspect is what the op is was trying to establish.
I too would have sent some to upg, to have tested. But would have probably declined there free bucket had it been offered whatever the results may have been .
