Does every salt taste like NaCl, if so, why ?

I'm talking about simple salt like MgCl2, KCl ... 
thank you.

So, beryllium salts actually taste sweet, not salty. In fact, the word beryl means sweet in greek, which is why the element was named beryllium. It was named this way back when chemists used to taste compounds to determine what it was. Turns out, beryllium is a potent carcinogen. Oops.
