   It does truly agree in this common quality ascribed unto both, of being incombustible, and not consumable by fire; but yet there is this inconvenience, that it doth contract so much fuliginous matter from the earthy parts of the oil, though it was tried with some of the purest oil which is ordinary to be bought, that in a very few days it did choak and extinguish the flame. John Wilkins, Mathem. Magick.

   Our growing rich or poor depends only on, which is greater or less, our importation or exportation of consumable commodities. John Locke.

1. consumable

   Consumables (also known as consumable goods, non-durable goods, or soft goods) are goods that are intended to be consumed. People have, for example, always consumed food and water. Consumables are in contrast to durable goods. Disposable products are a particular, extreme case of consumables, because their end-of-life is reached after a single use. Consumables are products that consumers use recurrently, i.e., items which "get used up" or discarded. For example consumable office supplies are such products as paper, pens, file folders, Post-it notes, and toner or ink cartridges. This is in contrast to capital goods or durable goods in the office, such as computers, fax machines, and other business machines or office furniture. Sometimes a company sells a durable good at an attractively low price in the hopes that the consumer will then buy the consumables that go with it at a price providing a higher margin. Printers and ink cartridges are an example, as are cameras and film as well as razors and blades, which gave this business model its usual name (the razor and blades model). Printing Consumables is another term used for office supplies. These are the consumable components like toner cartridges, they are consumed, utilized and then exhausted. These supplies are considered to be a major element of printing process.For arc welding one uses a consumable electrode. This is an electrode that conducts electricity to the arc but also melts into the weld as a filler metal.Consumable goods are often excluded from warranty policies, as it is considered that covering them would excessively increase the cost of the premium.
