Why Did It Have To Happen To Such A Great Spice?

My gramma sends us this chicken seasoning from Washington every time she can get her hands on it. It's good stuff. Well, the last time she sent us some, she managed to get her hands on a gallon bucket of it! (Oh yeah!) So my mom gave me a jar filled with it, and I had an original sprinkle container already from a previous shipment. Today I ran out from the sprinkle container and had to refill it from the jar. I couldn't get the sprinkle top off, so I had to use a knife to pry it off. The top popped off and fell on the floor, so I picked it up. I made a funnel out of a Valentine's Day card because I don't own one, and poured it in. Then I tried to put the sprinkle top back on. It didn't fit! I turned around to see if it was because of something I was doing, or if I had damaged the container. I stepped on something. Sure enough, the top of the jar came off with the sprinkle top. I should probably just buy a cheap set of salt and pepper shakers and put the seasoning in there. I know what it is anyway.
