Salt
What's with throwing salt over the shoulder to get rid of the devil/demons? Wasn't salt a luxury way back when? Was the idea to scare them off or get it in their eyes? Or, given salt's scarcity, was it more like throwing a bunch of money in the air and having the demons all scatter trying to gather it up?
