Delightfully delicious
These salts are amazing. I purchased the set of 4 solely for the pickle flavor. I love pickles, and dill pickle potato chips are one of my favorite snacks. I thought I could shake the pickle flavor on my popcorn. I wish I could tell you how good it was on my popcorn, but I can't. I shook a bit of the pickle salt in my mouth to taste it, and WOW my mouth exploded with amazing! Holy cow! That's unbelievable...I wonder what the lemon tastes like? (Lemon is another flavor I particularly love.) [Opens lemon salt, tastes.] Um, oh yeah! [Repeats with lime salt.] [Can't speak. Groans in salt-induced ecstasy]. Drink water, repeat.. I am a little bit ashamed to say that over the course of a couple of weeks I ate the entire set of these salts by pouring them out, licking my finger, coating it in salt, licking off, and repeating. After I had finished the lemon, lime, and pickle flavors I was feeling rather let down that they were all gone. I hadn't tried the mango chile because I was afraid it would be too spicy. I decided to give it a try, considering how scrumptious the others had been. I'm so glad I did. It had a bit of a bite to it, but nothing extreme. The sweetness from the mango cooled the heat considerably. I actually used (some of) this one the way it's meant to be used, as a seasoning and not a snack in and of itself, and am happy to report that everything I tried it on was improved by the taste. Some things I really enjoyed it on: peach cobbler (made it taste sweeter and added a smoky depth to the flavor that kept it from being treacly), popcorn, nachos, hamburger, chicken tender sandwich (with muenster cheese, oh my), and pound cake. The pound cake we melted a little butter, dipped the pound cake into it, and dipped it in the salt, very much like the trend of bread dipping using olive oil. It was amazing. I noticed when using the salt that you really don't get a salty=savoury feel when eating it on sweet things; rather, it seems to enhance the sweetness and depth of the sweet item.Okay, tl;dr. Buy this. Yum.Seriously recommended, unless you have high blood pressure, then cautiously recommended. This stuff is seriously good.EDIT: update on my thoughts on this 4-pack.Well, I got package #2 with the best of intentions to actually use it AS SALT and not as a snack for my salt-loving, salt-craving self. I'm pleased to say I did actually put the salt on actual food this time (but I still ate most of it right from the little bottles. OOPS). Okay, Pickle salt: utterly fantastic on cucumbers. Oh, yeah. Good on buttered microwave popcorn. Really good in tuna salad. Lime salt: best on tomatoes. Just slice 'em up and sprinkle the lime salt right on them. Dee-lish. Excellent on steak. Added to salsa - it was a good taste, but the salsa overwhelmed the delicacy of the lime flavor. Put some on some chicken that was then sprinkled with southwest chipotle seasoning. Very nice. Lemon-lime: salmon patties (yum), tuna salad (yum), eggs (not so much), grapefruit juice (YES!!). Finally, the mango chile: fajitas (mixed chicken, shrimp, & steak): fabulous. Salmon which was then cooked on a george foreman grill: excellent. Most tremendously excellent.My next set I plan to try the lime salt with black beans, the pickle salt with a cucumber riata, the mango chile salt with some Indian chicken, and the lemon-lime in butter drizzled over sponge cake. I'll let you know how it goes. :-D

Love these shakers! The mango chili is my favorite!! It’s so good on a variety of things like sliced cucumbers, cream cheese bagel, popcorn, and even vanilla ice cream!

Flavor is Intense
I like the Mango Chili but the others have a sharp flavor I'm not fond of. Some really like it so most likely just my taste buds. If you want to kick up your cottage cheese or add extra to your salads, these are great. Just sprinkle how much you want.

Adds flavor to foods, not for popcorn
The salt works and do add flavor to your foods, but the the salt/spice grains were too large to stick to popcorn. I ended up buying flavored popcorn salt. The pickle, lemon and lime salts work well on savory foods. I really like it on French fries, baked potatoes or other bland foods to jazz them up. The lemon and lime salts can also be used on some sweet foods like fruit and ice pops/ice cream. The mango chili was a little bit of a let down. The mango flavor tastes artificially sweet. Reminds me of watermelon hard candies I used to eat as a kid. It's okay on sweet foods but I wouldn't recommend on savory foods. It tasted best sprinkled on watermelon and kiwi.
