 Saltiness guaranteed! October 26, 2008

Wow, there are some people with ridiculous expectations on here. I have my salt stashed away in the original (scratched) container in my cupboard where I hardly ever see it, let alone anyone else, to care enough about the condition. The grater is METAL... it's in a container with SALT... mix it in with a LITTLE bit of HUMIDITY and what results is mother natures natural form of recycling itself... RUST... no matter if your grater comes rust free (must of been a dry day at the packing facility) or with it, if your home is completely humidity free (and I don't envy your skin if it is) you are bound to get some rust on there. I live in the tropics... humidity is a constant so I simply wash the rust away as soon as it starts to creep in. I even have to keep the salt stored in a cloth (because I had never seen salt pull moisture form the air like that).
All in all, I love this product. I think it seasons more effectively than regular table salt with its larger grains and tastes cleaner too. I don't know why some people say you have to scrape it longer to get more salt... unless you like really salty stuff, the grain is VERY fine and covers your food evenly. I only advise... don't scrape underneath the ceiling fan! You will notice a thin white film covering your dark table almost instantly!
It's a great conversation starter. I paired it with some marble dishes I got from IKEA exactly for this purpose (similar to http://www.amazon.com/RSVP-Black-Marble-Herb-Salt/dp/B000PSSVOY/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1225033301&sr=1-7) and people love it! It's great being able to tell people how old their food is! haha

a cool idea for someone who likes to try new things in the kitchen. Bought this item for a gift. The grater came with rust on it, and the packaging was all scratched up so you couldn't even read the description of the salt. Amazon sent me another one and the 2nd package was just as bad as the first. Needless to say, I repackage the salt and had to buy a new grater.
 hard to use July 26, 2007

I found this very hard to use. The grater is sharp and therefore grates your knuckles when it slips from your grip because you have to push the salt so hard into the grater. You also have to grate A LOT of salt to get enough to taste.

Beautiful and easy to use! The grater stays sharp after many uses and guests always ask about it. I wish it came with a dish to put the salts in. It would make a great gift if it came with a decorative dish.
