Counting on …day 97

Tanker lorries transport goods other than petrol – even marmite!

Can we expect marmite pumps in our local refill store? 

I suspect the tankers are transporting the yeast extract ‘waste’ – a byproduct  of the brewing industry – en route to the factory where it is transformed into a spread. I equally suspect that the consistency of the spread doesn’t make it a ready candidate for refill stores. But could not the glass jars be returned and refilled as per milk bottles? Maybe write to your preferred yeast extract manufacturer?
