I have gone through dozens and dozens of these since I was around 12 years old. Every month or so I had to remember to get to a store to replenish my supplies of this essential. Life is easier these days: I have them on auto-delivery, two-pack every two months. Now, the packaging… The only downside is the plastic packaging. Small as it is, it cannot be recycled by our city and has to be added to the millions of tonnes of garbage sent to the landfills. I cannot reduce the number of packs I buy; I cannot recycle the packaging. Reusing isn’t that easy either: I had to take it apart and use rubbing alcohol to remove any residues that could stain the log. But I will try with this one hoping it works.
