My Soap

Does anyone else have this problem? I was just in the shower and I found myself using this soap that had all but deteriorated. It was flakey and layered and little pieces kept breaking off. These pieces were everywhere. I'd rub some in soap in my hand and I'd get 4 different small pieces. Then I'd feel compelled to use these soapy bits so I mush them up and use it. But sometimes it doesn't mush, so I have to use each individual piece like it's a bar of soap. And then there are the times when I'm soaping up my leg or something and the piece comes off my hand and I lose it. Now I have to spend time looking for this little bit of soap so I can use it. I could probably save myself this problem if I invested some more money in soap. I somehow managed to find this bargain soap: three bars for a dollar. But really, for the money I save, flakey soap is well worth it. I mean, is it really worth another dollar to have soap that doesn't disintegrate? I'm actually interested in how they put it together. It's sedimentary. The layers peel off like that fruit leather they used to sell in stores and tasted so great. Whatever happened to fruit leather? Anyways, that's my beef with soap.
