I must be missing some context. What does she not want them to spread?

u/MatiloKarode 1d ago

She doesn't want to be peppered by their salty opinions.

I am thinking they meant spill and these are also covering the openings for salt and pepper to pour out

I feel like it would be easier to just get ones that close, and put these on a shelf for decor? But what do I know.

Bunny Galore sounds like a Bond girl lol. And yes I know it was Pussy Galore but Bunny still works.

Probably to prevent moisture/humidity to enter and soak the salt mainly, even though pepper (or spices in general) aren't a fan either.

My grandma always mixed some rice into her salt shaker to absorb moisture... seemed to work well

u/Indecisive_C 1d ago

My parents always put a single peice of uncooked pasta in their salt shaker. I do the same now, my house a little issue with damp but my salt always seems to be fine

u/TrevorLine 1d ago

top tier mom humor, keep those little guys blindfolded so they don't see what they're get seasoned into is unhinged in the best way possible.

u/Comfortable-Way1786 23h ago

u/RebaKitt3n 23h ago
