I wondered why the little pieces of paper with the quaint story of how Tom’s came to be and other little notes, stoped being included in the box. Doesn’t ring so true anymore.

With metal, I don’t think it’s as big of an issue to get it supper clean, since the smeltering process burns off residue. And, yes, I totally agree with the cardboard box thing. Why? Is it for ease of stacking or so deviants don’t squeeze them before purchasing?

In either case, now that we’re 1 month into the store bought toothpaste, it feeling like we’re going through it REALLY fast. We used two tiny bottles of peppermint and two of glycerine for a whole year, but now we’re using about 1/2 a tube a month or regular. That would be 6 tubes a year. It seams wasteful.
