Now I have to go through my entire collection and figure out which ones are real, and which are not. But since they are all Salt and Pepper Shakers I’ll Never Use, perhaps it doesn't matter.

The pepper shaker has fewer holes. In the event each shaker has the same number of holes, THEY ARE NOT REAL salt and pepper shakers-they are FAKES & should be returned to the vendor for a full refund IMMEDIATELY. Also the Better Business Bureau MUST be contacted. That being said, if you own any FAKE shakers you could put salt in both OR pepper in both. AND, it is always fun, as a host or hostess, to watch your guests try to figure out which is which AND end-user discretion is always acceptable. I am not a salt lover so IF I were to use salt and pepper shakers (which I would not), I would put pepper in both. Actually, I prefer to grind my pepper directly into/onto my food the way my parent who knew everything told me to. Do you want to talk pepper grinders now?

One way of thinking of it is that people use more salt than pepper, so the bottom shaker would have the salt, because it's bigger. But then you'd always have to move the upper one out of the way to use it. So, it would make better sense that the more frequently used one would be more accessible. It's a conundrum, but it doesn't matter. After all, it's one of my Salt and Pepper Shakers I'll Never Use. Lyle, beats me.
