What did people use before salt shakers were invented?
Salt pigs and salt cellars! These little guys were really popular in the 1940’s and usually made out of silver or glass; however, they seem to be making a comeback.
I made a few of my own in the past month. I think they’re an adorable idea, not so much for the table but for cooking. Plus, you don’t have to limit yourself to salt. You can store sugar or your favorite spices in them too!
The tops of these guys remind me of the 4 ringed moon jellyfish we have in our Atlantic waters.
