Natch Salt was once such valuable a commodity that we created devices to limit how much our fancy dinner guests could pour on their food: salt shakers. These tiny-holed objects have been around ever since Roman times. But the smart home era has reimagined the salt shaker into a tricked-out light-up bluetooth-connected device called Smalt.
According to the Smalt website, it?s ?The first multi-sensory device to make dining experience fun.? By that, the creators mean that Smalt plays music (?From Jazz to Johnny Cash?), has a small band of LEDs that change color (to ?Make any moment more memorable?), and dispenses salt (because ?Everything tastes better with a little bit of salt?). An imminent crowdfunding campaign for the device has yet to launch, but if you sign up now, you can get 50 percent off the future retail price. Because who doesn?t want to ?Surprise [their] guests and their palate with fun, interactive way to shake salt and bring out the flavor?"
