Recently, I lamented the waste of a non-refillable salt mill I had bought.  I was pretty close to shelling out for a nice reusable mill, when I happened on this little number in, of all places, the frozen dessert aisle of Trader Joe’s.

It didn’t say it was refillable, but the clear plastic design made me suspect it, and for $2, the same price as a bottle of Charles Shaw wine, including a full load of sea salt, I figured it was worth a try.  And sure enough, the grinder cap screws right off, ready to be filled or refilled with anything you care to grind.  And grind I shall, as long as the plastic teeth hold out…
