The yogurt pot

In France and Spain we are quite used to the very classical one-person-little-yogurt-pot.
 A priori it is quite convenient.
You will appreciate it use for an easy cake recipe...



There is just the quantity you (are supposed to) need, so you don’t have an open pot getting damaged and you don’t have to throw food (which is clearly a very bad thing). From this point of view it is fine. But…
If you have had the chance to go in places (like Italy) where you find different brands and different packaging and you’ve tried the delicious muller® fragola crema di yogurt, the one-person-little format is definitely wrong, because:
- it is not enough quantity (it is so good, I might have a little bit more)
- it means more packaging to throw (buuuu ! bad for the environment! have a look at this funny trash-monster video).




Actually I am not sure that this side is big enough… Anyway environment questions are quite complex and this is not exactly the place to have such debates. My ideal would be “almost no packaging”, maybe one day I’ll try to do a little research on this for this little blog.

Still I must confess that I like very much this format. It is more inspiring…
And so usefull to make a great pen cup…
Or a ball game for rainy winter sundays… (by the way, when is Spring supposed to come??? Aren’t we yet the 23rd of March? When shall we have the great honour to see again Madrid’s Sun face again?



Back to the yogurt story, a last little thing: aren’t your spoons boring?

uuups ! I was forgetting the glass pot…

Great to recycle to have candle outside!

And the clay pot… in which you eat this delicious Basque ewe yogurt, with honey or dark cherry jam…mmm…
