I've seen "kosher salt" for sale at the grocery store in a bag,,,,,is that the same as sea salt?

I would dearly love to NOT be dependant on these disposable grinders.
And do I need to buy another pepper Mill for the sea salt?

Kosher salt usually implies organic so should not be iodized. You can buy small bags at Kitchen Specialty stores like Happy Cookers. Usually Superstore carries bags, although not as big as bags of sugar.
Some sea salt is iodized as well, read your labels. You can buy coarse pickling salt in bags, not quite as chunky though, but it can be put in a salt grinder too.
I believe that pepper mills and salt mills have different grinder mechanisms, but don't quote me on that.
