As an april fools joke when I was young, my sister and I switched the flour and sugar containers.  We thought we were so funny!

 

Days or weeks went by and we heard nothing.  We had to ask mom about it and she told us she hadn't even noticed.  She just opened it up and knew what it was.

A mom would know that sort of thing.  Now salt and sugar could be mistaken if one didn’t look or did not have particular salts or sugars to use. In Europe the sugar crystals are usually larger than common salt crystals.

I understand it made for some interesting dinners.

Cat food or tuna fish?

My aunt once mistakenly made a meatloaf with cinnamon instead of pepper. The red and white cans looked alike and she grabbed the wrong one. 

 

Something didnt taste right. 

 

My brother's mother-in-law one time tried making gravy for Thanksgiving and grabbed baking powder instead of cornstarch.

Howdy,

One day I stopped into one of the better burger places, ordered

and got a nice meal.  

I called the waitress over and told her there was too much pepper on the fries.

Someone had loosened the top of the pepper and the whole container dumped

on my lunch.  They got me a replacement very quick.

I figured it was a kid prank.

Later I wondered if they had just refilled the shakers and didn't tighten some.

They gave me absolutely no argument whatever.

I still check every time.

Best

That's one of the reasons why, even at home, I put a dash into the palm of my hand.   The other reason is to see how fast it comes out.   I like a lot of pepper,  so sometimes I'll take the top off the shaker and gently tap it out.  I hate the pepper shakers that give out two flecks of pepper for every three shakes.
