Salt is a good answer. Now why is the tool that small?

This is close enough. It fits in a salt shaker. If the salt cakes up. It pulverizes it so you can use the shaker again.

Pm as usual.

In the salt shaker? I don't know I was not thinking about that use. I usally just put rice in the salt shaker, but I like the idea.
Anyway, I agreed to take the win. So here is something that many of use have used even without knowing it.
