Question True Off Topic Thread:Who Puts Rice in Their Salt Shaker?
I would imagine it's more of a thing for coastal people where the humidity is high all the time.

Live on the beach in Florida.

No rice in our salt shaker.

Shaker?

Nothing but fresh ground Himalayan 1000 year old salt. Had to toss some last year when it expired.

One would think that you could stretch another year of use out of 1000 year old salt

So 1002 years is too old?

There had been complaints of too much political content in OT, and being the responsive curated content editor that I am, I'm diversifying.

Contemplating a pepper thread.....coarse ground, fine ground, or fresh ground with your own pepper mill. That one should be a barn burner....at the very least, nothing to sneeze at.

I can understand why people do it, but even here in the Blue Ridge (the blue is humidity) we don't need to.

It's probably why soy sauce was invented. It's basically liquid salt.

I don't have a salt shaker. I just cook my food perfectly.

Nah, never have. I have poked the holes on top of the salt shaker open with a round toothpick a few times though. Good as new.

Not particular. It's all good. I did get tired of constantly filling the shaker though. These days I shake it straight from the can.

Don't have to, I use so much salt that it never has a chance to asorb moisture.
