When we arrived in Uruguay in 2009, we started buying the only yogurt that came in glass jars. After a couple years, they switched to plastic, but “nice” plastic – as in, clear and convenient to reuse.
Today I was removing labels and saw for the first time that they actually leave a space for you to label the contents when reusing their container – sweet! (Acá guardo = “Here I keep.”)
Nonetheless, I prefer them the labels removed, which requires only a couple minutes with an old kitchen scouring sponge, some turpentine, and cleaning up with dish detergent.
And yes, we do have a yogurt maker and do occasionally remember to use it 😉
