Quelle horreur!!!11!!!

Remember the OUTRAGE!!1!! when some wine bottlers eschewed the cork for screw tops? OMG, or should I say, Oh mon Dieu! The French and wine connoisseurs around the world had a fit of the vapours at the very thought. As we had visitors over the weekend I bought some wine and noticed a strange shaped bottle in Tesco wine department. The label was familiar but its flattened shape looked more like it should contain shampoo or cleaning fluid.
I picked up the bottle and felt a great disturbance in the ether, as if millions of wine buffs suddenly cried out in terror... the bottle was not made of glass but green plastic! 100% recycled plastic, no less. I wasn't scared of screw tops and I certainly wasn't going to be panicked by plastic so I bought one and its glass bottled equivalent that was sitting handily alongside.
I had a taste test later and you'll be astonished to hear they both tasted exactly the same.
Sell it cheaper then it might catch on.
