Q: Help! The top came off my pepper shaker and poured into my pot of soup! Way too much pepper!! Got any suggestions?

Editor: I’d quickly scoop out the pepper with a spoon while it’s still mounded on top of the soup. This is probably coming a little too late to help you for this soup, but try it if it happens again!

Readers, what’s your advice?
