What do you add to ice cubes to stop them from sticking together?

Update:

I mean after making the cubes in ice trays, when you empty the cubes into a container in the door of the freezer and refill the trays, when you need more ice for a party. Then, you scoop out the cubes into an ice bucket. I guess salt and brown paper bag, both must be correct answers. Any other opinion?

    If you put ice cubes in a brown paper bag and then put the bag back in the freezer, the ice cubes will not stick together. I can only guess why... maybe because the paper absorbs slightly melting water? But anyway, it does work.

    You don't need to add anything. They stick together because your freezer isn't cold enough. It's probably very close to 32 degrees. Every time you open the freezer door, you let a little warm air into the freezer and this melts the surface of the ice cubes a little bit which creates liquid water which re-freezes when you close the door again.

    If you can get your fridge to maintain a temperature closer to 20 degrees, you won't run into this problem.
