    Default MdC 'brain bowl' now in fougere

    Not much more to say, if you like the fougere (and boy howdy do I), it's now available in the 'brain bowl'. Sigh, another soap order.

    I was just on their site yesterday and I noticed this.

    My question, though, is whether it's worth it. The bowl is 200g net weight, which is the same as the jar. So it's 20 Euros more for the same amount of soap, and the only difference is the wooden bowl? I admit I still want the bowl, but I doubt the cheapo in me will ever allow me to spend that much money on it....

    Thanks Steve. That is great news. I like the Fourgere the best and now the brain bowl to go with it. And the price is right too

    The original is now in a new bowl (2 actually, 1 and 2 colors). It isn’t a ‘brain bowl’ and kind of looks like the old La Toja Manitiales wooden container. The 2-tone looks interesting.

    Cheers, Steve

    Years ago I bought a crate of their basic bath soap they call "Bread Soap". it must have taken me 5 years or more to finally go through it. I still have my brain bowl of shave soap I bought 10 years ago.

    FYI, the packing peanuts they use are made of aerated corn according to the card included in my last order. If you don’t re-use them, you can just place them in water and they’ll dissolve. Of course, I’m wondering if a little salt and onion powder might be a better solution for the ‘corn peanuts’.

    Cheers, Steve
