Fake salt on non-gmo popcorn?

I purchased a bag of popcorn and it specified Sea Salt. But, through taste tests of several family members, it was determined the salt was from the Maras Salt Mine in Peru. What should I do?

Update:

Well, I'm disappointed with so many negative comments. Our family can distinguish and pinpoint Sea Salt and copy cats because in the Ocean, the salt has a distinct hint of Turtle Urine that can't be mistaken.

    Take your family’s extraordinary salt palates and capitalize on them. Anyone who thinks they can identify the specific salt mine some salt in prepackaged popcorn comes from either should be making big bucks in the food industry or is delusional. I vote for delusional, but you go for it....

    There are probably about 5 people in the World that can distinguish salt like that. And I submit that if your family can tell that, they would not be eating store bought popcorn.

    OH. COME. ON!!!! Do you really, in this or any other reality, think that anyone is going to believe that you pinpointed that your salt was from a salt mine in Peru JUST BY TASTING IT????????????? Go away. Just.......................GO AWAY!!!!

    Right.  Because your family has such refined palates that they eat (shudder) bagged popcorn.
