Which goes in the shaker with more holes - salt or pepper?
I had always thought this was a no-brainer until my girlfriend and I purchased a new set. The dark shaker, which I assumed was meant for pepper, had less holes than the lighter shaker, which I assumed was for the salt. I found this very odd! I pointed it out to a lifetime friend of mine that we had over for dinner the other night.
He replied that the salt shaker was SUPPOSED to have more holes!! At first, I figured he was joking... but he wasn't! I was baffled by this!
I did a little research online and have found that there is actually quite a controversy over this!
I think that salt should have less holes. Too much salt is bad for you. I never put more salt on anything than I do pepper.
What do you think?
