Where I live even with all the precautions in the world my onion and garlic powders in particular absorb moisture very quickly and turn into rocks that I have to chip at to use.

It isn't exactly a perfect strat, but I usually just use a chopstick to break it apart and scrape off all the spice I need from the big spice lump, works better than something like a spoon or a fork in my experience.

This gave me an idea. I need to check when I make beans later if there's even enough left to be worth it, but a pointy knife should crack everything up and then i could tip it into a ziplock or similar to crush it up.

Yeah, ziplock bag to crush things up is always a good idea, make sure it isn't overfilled though or else it might burst.
