The Mamma Salt Shaker is a clever container that helps measure out the correct amount of seasoning for significantly healthier meals. Instead of relying on one's own estimates, as cooks are wont to do, it ensures that people will be consuming meals that perfectly balance taste and health.
Designed by Soohun Jung, a design student based in Seoul, South Korea, the Mamma Salt Shaker looks like a bulbous measuring spoon. In place of the typical punctured metal cap is a hollow head with circular markings to show how much salt is needed at any given time. It even has a small funnel to better pour the salt onto the dish being cooked. Overall, the design is rather futuristic.
