toilet paper running short

By the end of the year Cuba should receive an important importation of toilet paper according to an official with state conglomerate Cimex.

Australia Battles Asia
over Toilet Paper

The price of imported toilet paper from Asia is almost 40 per cent below "normal"costs and hurting local manufacturers in Australia, according to the Canberra Times.

EPA Recycle Logo

According to Greenpeace, Americans could save more than 400,000 trees if each family bought a roll of recycled toilet paper—just once.

The Tissue Guide evaluates toilet tissue, paper towels, paper napkins, and facial tissues.


Toilet Tissue Origami

In a humorous opinion article at the Hotel Online website, Larry Mundy wrote in his "Room With a View" column, perhaps partly with seriousness: "In my experience, there are two basic types of hotels: those that have the housekeeper fold a cute little triangle into the unused end of the toilet paper, and those that don’t. Call it silly, call it pointless, I call it a sure indicator of the service levels I can anticipate at the property." Mundy continued: "That tiny detail of carefully triangulated tissue tells me Toilet Tissue Origami that someone cared, that another member of my own species was here, in this very room, within the past few hours and spared no effort to make the end of the roll both presentable and easier to grip in my time of need. I don’t need to engage in frustrating roll-rotation exercises just to find the loose end. I don’t need to contemplate the jagged tear-line from the last user’s haste — in fact, it doesn’t occur to me there was a 'last user' at all, because the roll looks neat and new."
