I had a previously used tube in my cabinet that I hadn't used for a while - maybe 4 months or so. I opened it up this morning to smell it before using it and the scent wasn't too strong. I re-capped it and as I finished tightening it, the top of the tube (with the threads) just clean snapped off.
I didn't exactly tighten it super hard and no I don't have superhuman strength
It then got weirder. I tried to squeeze out a little of the cream but I saw it had separated - it was soapy liquid then lumpy cream. Yuck.
I was disgusted and just threw it away. I'm not a huge fan of TOBS creams, but I think they're OK (I prefer Geo. F. Trumper's stuff) - after this, I think it's the last TOBS cream I'll buy.
The tube wasn't that old. I'd bought it maybe six months ago (new from an online vendor). Maybe the seller had it in stock for a really long time? I'd used it before and it was fine.
