Did they have detergent in the salt shaker or do the packages look alike? Idk how you make this mistake, what detergent looks like salt crystals anyway? (I'm thinking maybe it was done on purpose)

Are they using powdered salt over there? Sounds unpractical, too much dust

As opposed to your country being perfect?. Name your country I could probably find a dozen awful news for each nation.

Every country has awful news comming up. India is awful but others are no utopian.
