So its cheap! and you could just simply take the salt and pepper pot from home! along with your fish slice and wooden spoons. so why bother? well most campers are used to damp salt! well that is history with this little combo sealed via a lid. and they both lock into each other small in size (Ok so not a good argument on this one unless your jamie oliver with a table leg instead of the noraml pepper mill we all use!) Only other thing worth pointing out it is shock resisant so should be able to withstand most shocks and knocks!
