Screw you, McCormick sea salt grinder marketers

Penzey’s Four Peppercorn Blend. You can thank me by buying two and sending one to me.

Only the Germans would develop such an efficient way of dealing with groundhogs.

I buy pickling salt because it’s just salt, not salt with stuff added to it like regular table salt. But it’s a bit chunky, so I put it in a recycled Walnut Ridge barbecue spice grinder. Easy off top, easy to refill. No idea where I bought it and I don’t even recognize the brand name, so it must have been on sale somewhere, but the little plastic grinder parts seem to be working just fine.

I never cease to be amazed at the state of the art in genetic engineering.

What does regular table salt (without iodine) have added to it? The ingredient list on mine is rather lacking in any sort of additives.

A small amount of an anti-caking agent is usually added to table salt, so it doesn’t clump up in the salt shaker during humid weather (hence the old Morton’s slogan “when it rains, it pours”). Pickling salts don’t have any anti-caking agents added, because they can cause foods being canned or pickled to discolor. Wikipedia can tell you more

I can’t believe no one has recommended this yet- a Himalayan Salt Lamp!

Use it as the centerpiece of your table to create that ‘enchanting environment’. Feel better yet? Good! Now keep a hammer and chisel handy- when your salt grinder gets empty, just chip a chunk off of your lamp for a refill. Voila! Or, if you’re in a hurry, you can just lick the fucker.

So that’s what it means! :smack:

I have these, which I got cheap at a kitchen outlet shop. They work fine, and have done for several years.

Do you have any ethnic shops nearby? I get all my spices at the Chinese supermarket- much cheaper, and no excess packaging.

If all else fails, Penzeys is your friend. If everything is going very well, Penzeys is your friend. If all you have is day-old shoe leather and stagnant water, Penzeys is your friend.

If you can dream it, they can spice it.

How radioactive is Japanese sea salt now a days? Where does McCormick get the sea salt?

I hear Godzilla soup is rather bland. Mock Gamera Soup, on the other hand, is quite tasty.
