Exactly! I had one lazy susan cabinet in a kitchen years ago. I stored
jars of spices and bottles of things like worcestershire, teriyaki and other
bottled sauces there. I certainly didn't spin it so hard things flew off to
the back of the cabinet!

I don't have a lazy susan-type cabinet now. I do have a wooden lazy susan
on the counter next to the stove for the always go-to herbs and spices
And a smaller one in one of the cabinets for the aforementioned bottles.
Still, stuff doesn't fly off the shelves. I don't spin them like roulette
wheels.
