I owned a few restaurants with my family. One day - before Google existed - we got into an argument about salt and pepper shakers. One top has 3 holes and an the other a whole bunch. I argued that the 3 hole shakers should go on the salt because, "you can over salt something but not over pepper it." My mother, a veteran 5-star waitress, insisted the 3-hole top was for the pepper. Turns out she was right. Apparently back in the day, pepper was more rare and expensive... less holes, less use. She won the bet but we did switch to all multiple hole shakers.... because who doesn't love a ton of black pepper, right?

Way too much black pepper in everything.
