Have you ever seen a bar of soap that had no center? While on an overnight stay at a conference hotel last week, I noticed a box with a soap bar in it, but it looked odd. The soap box had an oval hole in the middle. When I picked it up, I saw through the box as well as through the middle of the bar of soap inside. The note on the box explained that this innovation was a "waste reducing" soap that addressed the problem of regular soap bars: the unused center. Maybe this product was not made for people like me, because I use every last piece of a bar of soap. When the centers are left, I mash them together and keep on lathering until all the soap is used. I do this because I was raised in the era of "Waste not, want not."
The soap with the hole in the center did smell great, though.
Smiles,
