BYOFS: bring your own flaky salt

fun fact: you can buy food-safe lip gloss tins off amazon, fill them with maldon flaky salt, and make little gifts for your friends!!! I did this a few years ago because frankly I wanted a little tin for myself but had to buy a 10 pack of lip gloss tins

“Refillable little salt tins — great for gifting or your own kitchen. We pack one for vacation rentals and camping, and I keep another filled with mints for on the go.”
