Have not tried taking containers but I have seen my friend filling soy sauce in a bottle that she had brought. I wonder if it is an issue here as well or just over there? <br />Or queensland people are a bit more laid back? <br />I am going to a local health food store tomorrow so I will find out what they think.momohttp://kurashi-arekore.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4090487055510638671.post-71390087183130685082009-07-22T17:56:17.782+10:002009-07-22T17:56:17.782+10:00Thank you Lucy!

I really admire your determination!<br /><br />I was going to suggest perhaps if there is a legal problem with potential 'contamination', maybe in all shops serving take-away food there could be a 30 second sterilising machine thingo. Ie like a small dishwashy-type machine which sprays your container with boiling water or steam or something to 'de-contaminate' it. You know, like how Mums sterilise babie's bottles and dummies? This would take a few moments and then your container could be used! I am sure there are actually machines a bit like this already in hospitals etc.<br /><br />Hmm.. Maybe this idea needs to be patented!Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03417799114967237506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4090487055510638671.post-75391848050994240042009-07-07T05:18:28.223+10:002009-07-07T05:18:28.223+10:00This wouldn't happen in a country town..

Cities have become so terrified of humanity..terrified of the germs that might exist on the strange person sitting next to them on the bus, or the container-girl in the deli..and the fact that she kept saying "its nothing personal ma'am" highlights that she anticipated you to take it personally and get angry and cause a scene.. which says a lot too..<br />Anyway - you're diet is doing wonders for you (and humanity) my dear.Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13394650570854197343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4090487055510638671.post-54766682636415724662009-07-06T14:43:06.153+10:002009-07-06T14:43:06.153+10:00ebo-chan!...arigatou!ebo-chan!...arigatou!Yumihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08586790797470337292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4090487055510638671.post-17396009499444990622009-07-05T19:08:53.991+10:002009-07-05T19:08:53.991+10:00oh yumi-chan! you are so gorgeous!

I have posted up about co-op's and I spoke to them about it. They said that it's an issue everywhere and that they have troubles with the council about the self service and bring your own container aspect...we just have to continue supporting stores like this!Yumihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08586790797470337292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4090487055510638671.post-61825532755325668862009-07-02T19:19:37.289+10:002009-07-02T19:19:37.289+10:00Wow Yumi - What an ordeal...
