Ketchup and Mustard Salt and Pepper Shakers are Quite Contrary
Gil Cohen — February 2, 2013 — Art & Design
To give any dinner table the feeling of a cozy, mom and pop diner, the Ketchup and Mustard Salt and Pepper Shakers from NeatoShop are the way to go.
While the ceramic shakers look like squat versions of ketchup and mustard bottles, they actually contain salt and pepper seasoning. The condiment bottles come in a little basket and make it difficult for guests to determine what exactly they contain -- is it salt, pepper or ketchup they are about to pour all over their food? Perhaps this added element of surprise adds to the play on words happening with the seasoning bottles.
