Try making campfire stew, have someone measure out the pepper, and
just set the top back on the container. When someone goes to adjust
the seasonings, the whole shaker goes intto the pot for a dozen girls
and 1 counselor. Now, we would simply take a spoon and scrape out as
much as possible. But then, someone decided to make it worse and
stirred it all in.

Trust me, even the chili heads wouldn't have cared for it!
