Toilet Paper is still Paper.

Just an odd thought really - toilet paper. It's not something often discussed or considered, yet nearly as essential as oxygen to our survival as civilized animals. I am constantly trying to get around the use of paper towels, which I could surely live without all together. I am obsessive in my recycling efforts of all other paper products. I carefully rinse and crush every carton and place it in the proper bin with a nod of satisfaction. I purchase recycled paper products when possible. I print on both sides of every piece of paper that comes out of my printer and I curse the U. S. Postal system for ignoring my request to stop receiving junk mail. But, what about toilet paper? toilet paper is a bit of an issue in this household as I'm sure it is in every mixed gender household. Man vs. Woman with a chasm of irrationality swimming between them. Woman use more toilet paper than men. I don't need to go into the details but quite simply we use it EVERY time; and sometimes we need two rations. Men use it only once a day, perhaps twice if they are blessed with prolific bowels. Nonetheless, toilet paper is, in fact, paper which as we all know is made from trees. And there is no way around it's use. period. While we could all use a few less squares each time, we can also feel a little less guilty about it's use; you may now purchase toilet paper made from 80% -90% post consumer product. All that junk mail and newspaper you toss in your recycling bin may some day be toilet paper. I recently discovered "Earth Friendly Products" 100% biodegradable, chlorine free, chemical free, 80% post consumer, nothing tested on animals toilet paper. As an added bonus, it's a small family company. May your bumm cheeks rejoice! Check it out. http://www.ecos.com/pages/tissue.html
