Having a batch of baked chocolate chip cookies sitting in front of me at 2am is not a good thing. I’ve already taken two already. Hopefully that’ll be the end of it.
Now onto the main topic. So my current bar of soap has been shrinking toward non-existence. However, it’s almost the size where you’d just chuck it out because it’s no longer efficient to use it. The surface area has decreased so much, you have to rub several times before you get enough lather. It becomes easy to slip from your hands and down the drain. Even my soap holder’s grills aren’t skinny enough to hold it.
I do have spares already. I purchased a 20pk of Irish Spring from Costco for like $6.50. Some will probably bio-degrade completely by the time I get to it, but it seemed like a decent deal.
What they should make bar soaps do is assimilate into a new bar, so none goes to waste. Sort of like playdough. That would be neat. I know liquid body wash exists, but they’re just different than bar soap and I’m not a big fan of liquid body wash.
I also had the same problem with erasers back when I was in school. I never was able to completely finish using one as they’d get so small and I would lose them always. I believe they actually make erases like that already, but I forget the name, but it exhibits similar properties to gum.
