The last bit of moisturiser wasted.

I prefer tubes to tubs because there is less exposure of the content to air. However, I really dislike how some of the content will go to waste.

Front.

Back.



Side. How to squeeze anymore?

If this were a plastic tube, I would have cut the tube in half to get the last bit of moisturiser left in it. This is, however, a metal tube.

Oh, well.

Don't waste the last bit of jam (and almond butter).

This is my favourite brand of jam:

There will always be some jam left at the base of the jar and on the inside of the walls. I hate to waste. So, I would fill the jar with water, cap the jar and shake vigorously (yah, I am a closet bar tender).

Voila! Atas looking fruit juice (with bits of real fruit)!

Update:  15 June 2016.
I haven't had any jam or peanut butter in a long time since I started on healthier eating.

Instead of peanut butter, I take almond butter which is a healthier alternative. Almond butter is pretty pricey but my health is worth it.

No matter how I scrape the inside and base of the jar, there will be always be a bit of almond butter left. What to do?

Scoop in some steamed rice and stir things up a bit.

Yummy almond butter rice.

Very little is wasted.

Voila! Have some almond butter rice for dessert!
