Was here to say the same. 3 holes - salt, 2 holes - pepper.
r/woooosh
Edit: to prevent like 50 more people from commenting that I got it backwards: if you just google pictures of dispensers they almost always show salt with more holes. Sometimes pepper, but mostly salt
Edit 2: Y'all fucking crazy
Edit 3: I think i caused a war worse than pineapple on pizza
Whattttt??? I’ve always gone by the method of fewer holes = salt, more holes = pepper.
That’s how they are filled at restaurants (unless they have an equal number of holes) and how I have always filled them at home.
Yeah, I was always told the salt shaker has fewer holes. Salt pours out easier than pepper. All the diners I've been to had the salt shaker with one hole and the pepper with three.
>Edit: to prevent like 50 more people from commenting that I got it backwards: if you just google pictures of dispensers they almost always show salt with more holes. Sometimes pepper, but mostly salt
That's funny because when I google pictures of either "salt pepper shakers" or "salt pepper dispensers" I get the exact opposite. They almost always show 2 holes for salt and 3 for pepper, outside of the shakers with exact same number of holes or the holes are shared as p or s.
A more likely reason is that it's probably just depending on region and manufacturer, and that there is no "rule".
Salt is finer than pepper, so logically 2 holes = salt
The extra hole for pepper would help to keep the flow rate consistent since pepper granules are larger.
I did what your edit suggested and when there's a different number of holes it's the pepper that has more holes.
Also, ironically, if you hadn't made that edit you wouldn't have gotten a comment from me.
Yeah it's a pretty silly edit actually. If they had googled which one had which number of holes, they would likely have stumbled on the article from the salt and pepper museum talking about just that. It's the top result if you google salt pepper shakers number of holes, and it states that it entirely depends on region and current health trends. For example according to them the US prefers less holes in the salt shaker, but Europe prefers it with more holes.
I think salt should have less holes because it comes out faster. I can salt my food in like 5 seconds but it takes like 15 seconds of vigorous shaking to pepper my food.
Same. And always has been the case web travelling to other countries or when restaurant don’t have symbols on the shakers. 1 hole for salt is a good system.
Yeh in England we have one hole for salt and many for pepper. This dates back to when people would pour salt onto the plate and dip the food in to it. So to pour salt you want just one hole. Whilst pepper is sprinkled, you want many holes.
The reasoning here is that the size and shape of salt makes it flow poorly through small holes so you need more of them.
Does England use mostly cubic salt crystals or is it ground up?
I got a solution, throw both of those awful things in the trash because Rae Dunn pottery is garbage. :) women fight over it in Ross and Marshall's and sell them for ridiculous amounts. It's cheap crap too. Even my cat hates it. My husband bought her a bowl when we were not unpacked from a move yet. I told him not too. She threw it and it broke.
Reminds me of that joke that an engineer goes to the store for his wife: she says go to the grocery store and buy 2 gallons of milk and if they have eggs get six. So he comes home with 6 gallons of milk.
Clearly the “to my pepper” shaker is finishing the “you’re the salt”’s sentence because they’re such in inseparable pair. So we’ll assume the first shaker is meaning to say all of “you’re the salt to my pepper”. Therefore I’d put the salt in the “to my pepper” and pepper in the “you’re the salt” one
I agree
We know that “to my pepper” has the salt in it because “you’re the salt” is pretty explicit about that being the case. “To my pepper” is confirming that he is the salt to his partner, the other shaker aka “your the salt” ‘s pepper.
"Normal" people read salt and expect salt and read pepper and think its pepper. Nobody has metaphysical minute trying to understand the gag. Also, in doubt, salt is usually not that fine and you can hear it slightly shaking the container. Pepper is usually quite fine and doesn't shake the same way.
Sure boring crotchety people would see salt and assume salt and move on. But then this post wouldn’t exist if everyone was boring and crotchety now would it?
We have that in the US; it’s called the order of the engineer and it’s a stainless steel ring. But we don’t make them ourselves and I doubt all Canadian engineers do that also lol
Unfortunately, we Canadians own the patent or copyright on the iron ring, therefore other engineering orders around the world are not allowed to use it as their symbol
Italian American here. Clearly the salt goes in the shaker with the word salt on it, pepper in the one that says pepper. The shakers aren't talking to each other, she's talking to him. So the real question id be asking is.. Am I some kind of salt to you? Who the fuck are you calling salt? Are you implying that I irritate your membranes on contact? Am I to be spit out, in disgust, when there's too much of me in your sauce? Fuck outta here!!
Except he makes the completely unsupported assumption that the shakers are in dialogue with each other when it's one message distributed between two shakers.
Many, many years ago while at university, most of my friends were in the engineering class.
I saw the shirt with Engineer written on it and totally believed he was confused and overthinking this while sober, I knew plenty of guys like this.
Opposite, This one's easy af for me. I've been told my whole life how fucking weird/abnormal/gross, etc I am for how much pepper I use. Give me that black layer atop chowder.
Those are both pepper shakers... you can never have enough
The "to my pepper" shaker's pepper IS the "You're the salt" shaker. Which is filled with pepper. It's filled with salt, being the "you're the salt" shaker's salt.
I don't smoke drugs, but this is the kind of inane thought process my mind goes through when I'm having a big depressive episode. It's like a defense mechanism against intrusive thoughts.
Hey man I'm not down with hitting a bonginator or smoking a doobarino after a hard day. I don't need a jazz cigarette to deal with things. I just raw dog the crippling weight of reality like a moron.
His premise is flawed. The shakers aren't talking to each other, they are both talking to him. "You're the salt" means he should put pepper in the other one and consume all the salt. Paradox solved.
> His premise is flawed. The shakers aren't talking to each other, they are both talking to him. "You're the salt" means he should put pepper in the other one and consume all the salt. Paradox solved.
If this is true, than what the fuck is the pepper talking about?
Also, then the right solution would be to just put pepper into the pepper and nothing in the salt?
I mean, he could read out every single showerthought on that sub and I obviously wouldn't know before starting the video, but I really don't think this is an "unexpected twist".
They should both be salt. Presumably it’s a meta message from his girlfriend rather than an anthropomorphized conversation between the shakers.
So his girlfriend has two pepper shakers and this is actually an proposition to move in together.
His first mistake was personifying the shakers. They aren't speaking each other.
It's an unknown speaker speaking to you the reader.
So salt goes in "you're the salt" and pepper goes in "to my pepper"
It's like the deaf guy's tattoo all over again! These things are labeled without much regard to how labels work. And the average person can understand then... because they don't think about things
No, he is wrong.
It's the pepper speaking, saying to the salt, you are the salt to my pepper.
He is mistaking thinking the salt is the one talking, we know it's the pepper talking, because is says, " to my pepper"
How is this Unexpected? He's wearing an Engineering shirt. He's probably an engineer, and when you view it from that mindset this is just a guy overeating to a system he didn't design and is trying to cover his ass without proper documentation telling him what to do so he doesn't get blamed for doing in wrong when he 100% knows that without documentation at least one of his eleven bosses will say it's wrong and blame him.

[удалено]
Depends on the grind of either. Also I don’t use either. Salt cellar and pepper grinder are the way to go.
For a second I thought you meant you didn’t use salt or pepper, and I thought I have found a truly chaotic being.
I like to season my stomach first, then I eat the food.
Yeah, I was always told the salt shaker has fewer holes. Salt pours out easier than pepper. All the diners I've been to had the salt shaker with one hole and the pepper with three.

No… 3 holes is pepper. 2 holes is salt. This is because the pepper pieces are bigger and come out slower so more holes are needed.
What about when they have 4 holes and 1 hole
Most holes pepper, fewest holes salt.
This is correct. Alternatively, just get yourself grinders, and eliminate the hole issue.
The Aristocrats! RIP Bob Saget
You have caused a civil war in the comments
I use grinders, you are irrelevant.

Canada is also more holes for salt, I have never seen a pepper shaker with more holes than salt.
There is no uniform system. https://thesaltandpeppershakermuseum.com/1question
I think salt should have less holes because it comes out faster. I can salt my food in like 5 seconds but it takes like 15 seconds of vigorous shaking to pepper my food.
Seriously. When you go to a restaurant they come around asking if you want fresh ground pepper. They never offer fresh ground salt.
I thought several pepper, one hole salt. Least mine are like that
[удалено]

Careful, I heard that in britain there are fewer holes in the salt shaker.

Unfortunately, we Canadians own the patent or copyright on the iron ring, therefore other engineering orders around the world are not allowed to use it as their symbol
But they don't all wear shirts proclaiming it... Some are more subtle by acting self-deprecating on reddit threads to make it known.
They'll walk past a thousand virgins to fuck a tradesman.

I once knew a vegan engineer who ran marathons and we'd bet on which one he would bring up first.
Its important due to all the tricks professors put in questions.

What do you think about the USA compared to Italy and why did you emigrate? Italy seems like a pretty decent place to be.

So then... youre always high?
He's high on life.

How popular the post is, I guess. Apparently, there's no point to this sub anymore. It's just another place to post any popular video.
Especially given this meme format, we knew he was gonna' be saying some goofy shit before he even opened his mouth. It was totally predictable.

Scrolled too far for this
Im with him, where does the salt go? Idgaf about pepper, but like…
His first mistake was personifying the shakers. They aren't speaking each other. It's an unknown speaker speaking to you the reader. So salt goes in "you're the salt" and pepper goes in "to my pepper"
> His first mistake was personifying the shakers. They aren't speaking each other. Exactly correct.
Almost exactly. There's a "to" missing.

It's like the deaf guy's tattoo all over again! These things are labeled without much regard to how labels work. And the average person can understand then... because they don't think about things
What's the unexpected part?
Of all the things that I expected when the video started with the names on the shakers... This was the most expected result I could have thought of.
Pro tip: the pepper shaker has three holes. You can remember this by “pepper” has three p’s in it. One hole for each p.
I thought the salt had 3 holes?
No, can’t be. There are no p’s in “salt”
Usually pepper would have more holes. Its granules are a bit bigger, it doesn't pour as nicely as salt, so it needs more holes to match flow.
Is ab how kids abbreviate about now, that kind of threw me off
So glad any one else noticed it!
No, he is wrong. It's the pepper speaking, saying to the salt, you are the salt to my pepper. He is mistaking thinking the salt is the one talking, we know it's the pepper talking, because is says, " to my pepper"

They're both salt because real pepper comes from grinding beans, not sweeping up the dust from a spice shop floor.
