I keep salt and sugar in identical bottles. A mistake was bound to happen, and it just did.

Why would you do this? I would just get a marker and label each one with an “S” so you don’t make this same mistake in the future.

First thing i did, while my mouth was still salty from the first bite, is go get my sharpie.

Never again

This is also why it's required for restaurants to label all containers.

A clear jar of what is assumed vinegar could be bleach, and those tiny mix ups could be deadly.

I don't think anybody keeps cleaning agents and food ingredients in the same place, I definitely don't, don't know anybody who does, so it's logical to assume it should be the same in restaurants

Vinegar can be a very effective cleaning agent though, it's not just used for food.

It's still a different vinegar, that shouldn't be kept with food

Totally agree on that point. I took it more to mean it could be fatal if someone went to refill a jar of vinegar with bleach (or vice versa) since mixing the two creates chlorine gas which can be fatal.

Your mouth was salty? What’s the problem then?

You don't understand, this batter was a lot saltier than the batter you're thinking of
