No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Do you have any examples? I'm not a chemist but I don't believe you can have "chloride" alone as an ingredient. If it were alone it would be elemental chlorine, which is an entirely different animal and I sincerely doubt any drink maker would be putting free chlorine into their drinks.
A "chloride" on the other hand is a compound of chlorine already combined with some other element, which is presumably not sodium or you would've not said the sodium and chloride were separate. So you could have "potassium chloride" for example, but this would not turn into "sodium chloride" simply by existing in the same liquid as elemental sodium, because it's perfectly happy sticking with the potassium and being potassium chloride.
I’m not OP but I’m wondering if perhaps they are mixing up ingredients with nutrition facts or just marketing content?
Here are screenshots from a mix I was looking at just last night. Chloride is listed as one of the electrolytes, and it’s listed separately in the nutrition facts. But in the ingredients it’s just “salt”.
I’m just speculating though.
Edit: TIL cropping images then hitting “copy and delete” to close them does not actually paste a cropped image on my new phone. That’s annoying.
Yeah, I think I did mix up the nutrition facts and ingredients. Or they changed the labels because I checked ononline and in a store and it says salt. I don't see sodium and chloride though so maybe they did change the label.
