"As early as 1912, Morton was selling salt in a convenient round package instead of a bag. That idea helped make Morton America's favorite. Over the years, many other ideas have come from Morton. The original iodized salt, a superior moisture-proof package, an exclusive shake and pour top, and a salt of uncommon quality. Today two out of three salt buyers prove - a woman will always buy a good idea. When it rains it pours."
