I think friends. When grains are grinded it looks like salt. Similarly when any chip is destroyed it looks like broken pieces of glass. So I think they have some relation.

In English usage, we say 'a grain of salt', 'a blade of grass' and 'a chip of glass'. These are the smallest quantities by which the salt and the glass can be described. Blade of grass can also be one of the answers but chip of glass is the most appropriate analogy to salt:grain.
