Salt shakers are a common household staple and those that don't own one can easily purchase a ready made version at their local supermarket.
While these models seem pretty simple to use, one man was gobsmacked to learn that they have a secret feature. In a now viral TikTok video, profile @rightguysreview demonstrated how you can change the size of the salt granules from fine to coarse with a simple push.
In the clip, he said that he "couldn't believe he just found this out" while removing a store bought salt shaker from his cupboard. The man then simply clicked the end of the shaker, which changes the salt granules' size from small to big, the Mirror reports.
He then demonstrated both settings and you can clearly see a difference. After comparing both types, he exclaimed: "How am I only finding this out today? Who knew that?"
The revelation has left viewers divided. While some were quite impressed with the tip and can't wait to try it, others were quick to exclaim that they've known about it for years.
One person penned: "That's so amazing."Another said: "I've never ran so fast to my cupboard to test it out - mind blown!"
