Today we go trendy and chat about the next big step for the way we shop for food. Yep that’s right, we’re heading into refill centres! These are popping up all around the world to help you only buy the quantities of ingredients you need, and postively impact the environment by reducing the use of packaging. It’s a no brainer to adopt this method of shopping… isn’t it?! What’s your view on refill centres, have you ever used one and how did you find it? If you haven’t, then tell us why!
