Why would you do this? I would just get a marker and label each one with an “S” so you don’t make this same mistake in the future.

I always have to watch it 20 times before I continue scrolling

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Exactly 🤣🤣🤣.

[–] gibmiser@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago

denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 24 points 2 years ago (1 children)

S for salt, s for sugar, so there's no confusion.

[–] acetanilide@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I would do an upside down S, less confusion

[–] dukk@programming.dev 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I would do a cool S.

First thing i did, while my mouth was still salty from the first bite, is go get my sharpie.

Never again

[–] Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This is also why it's required for restaurants to label all containers.

A clear jar of what is assumed vinegar could be bleach, and those tiny mix ups could be deadly.

[–] maniel@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I don't think anybody keeps cleaning agents and food ingredients in the same place, I definitely don't, don't know anybody who does, so it's logical to assume it should be the same in restaurants

[–] Case@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 years ago

Restaurants absolutely shouldn't.

However, people suck and it happens, probably more often than you would want.

[–] charles@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Vinegar can be a very effective cleaning agent though, it's not just used for food.

Your mouth was salty? What’s the problem then?

[–] BOLOID@pawb.social 1 points 1 year ago

You don't understand, this batter was a lot saltier than the batter you're thinking of

[–] KonalaKoala@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This is probably why it is usually a good idea to label your bottles or containers with names like salt, sugar, baking soda, flour, etc.

[–] Senshi@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

But that's boring. Just close your eyes, grab any packet or bottle at random and apply with gusto. This way you will always be surprised at new and fresh taste combinations!

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've heard cooking and baking referred to as art and science, interchangeablely depending on who you talk to. I've never seen someone try to turn it into alchemy.

One time I got a coffee to go, only to find they’d put salt instead of sugar.

[–] Che_Donkey@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

And it takes your brain a moment to figure out what the hell is happening...like a complete out of body experience first thing in the morning

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

“We’ve replaced Che_Donkey’s normal morning sugar with crystalline LSD. Let’s see if he notices!”

[–] Che_Donkey@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

at first I was like, "Ha Ha! I get that reference."

then I realized how old the reference is ...

....now I'm depressed

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Salt in coffee is actually a thing. I think it decreases the perception of the bitter taste or something? I don't remember. I just remember trying it and not caring for it, because I like the taste of coffee.

(It's a very small amount of salt though. Like a pinch in a cup is more than enough.)

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This was an undrinkable amount

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

It’s a lot, dammit!

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I actually do make my French Toast with salt and pepper. No sugar, except in the maple syrup. It's far superior.

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 7 points 2 years ago

This is also why I like to use kosher salt, very distinct grains

[–] Thrawne@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

I mixed these up as a kid once. Worst jug of kool-aid i ever had. Fruit punch “sweetened” with salt.

[–] spacecowboy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago (3 children)

You put sugar on your French toast?

[–] BOLOID@pawb.social 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Tons, and cinnamon, flour, and a little bit of salt. I find that the bread dilutes the flavor, so i overload the batter to compensate.

I don't like bland french toast

[–] Phil_in_here@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

In the batter. Eggs, milk, sugar.

[–] Tier1BuildABear@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Probably powdered sugar, which makes op even more stupid. Jk he probably added powdered salt

[–] Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 years ago

Powdered salt is great for popcorn! Grind it up in a spice grinder and you get this ~~terrible~~ awesome superfine powder for popcorn

[–] ME5SENGER_24@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

My parents store their’s like this. I thought I’d be a good son and make everyone bacon and pancakes for breakfast one day while visiting. Mistakes were made, good thing there was enough bacon to go around

[–] Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Murphy's law Op. Glad you learned about it on a non threatening scenario.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah good thing OP found out in a low stakes situation. Can you imagine if it was more serious?

“Cast your hope aside Mortal, for the demon Karanathaghar has set his eye on thee!”

“Oh I know. I’ve seen this in the x-files. I’ll just make a neat little ring of salt around me …”

“You sweeten yourself for me. Bwahahahaha!”

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

You did this to yourself lol

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 years ago

That's really funny. I'm sorry for laughing at your expense

[–] Tuss@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I had nearly the same problem on new years.

Was going to put vanilla sugar in my whipped cream but accidentally put baking soda as its the exact same container.

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Savory french toast slaps. Put sum cheese on that bad boy

[–] TotalTrash@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

But using as much salt they normally would use sugar? Most people put shitloads of sugar on french toast.

[–] Acamon@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, I was confused about this... A little sugar won't ruin your French toast, and you can always salt it afterwards... I genuinely forget that people eat it sweet, I'm a cheddar and bacon boy myself.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah that’s just a ham and cheese sandwich bro

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

You accidentally used sugar? Sucks

[–] wjrii@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I was assured by Ted Lasso that this will turn out okay.
