What is the deal with toilet paper?!? Wouldn't it be nice if they had a standard for all brands?

Question

By the time I try to figure how many sheets and how many square feet and how many rolls, if they are 1-ply or 2-ply sheets, if they are double rolls or triple rolls, I just grab up the one that is fluffiest or fullest package!

Answer 1

Here's a tip: Compare the size of the cardboard rolls when choosing toilet paper. More often than not, they will differ hugely. It will then make it easier to see whose brand offers more ply and comfort. You will get quality and quantity.

Answer 2

Some people simply feel better more superior than their fellow cave dwellers when they wiped with three ply triply absorbent lavender scented sheets. Truth is, they all weigh about the same - - - it comes down to a preference thing - - - and in the end, literally, it is all about marketing.

Answer 3

2 ply double rolls is the way to go! There is no confusion then--remember---2 ply double rolls!

Answer 4

Just buy Angel Soft. It's cheap, but it's one of the best out there! Charmin leaves little white stuff behind, but Angel Soft doesn't. From what I've found, the have one kind - regular, quilted, 2-ply paper.

Answer 5

And that's what the advertisement vampires hope you do.

If there was only one kind, no choice, how many dollars go you think they would charge for one roll?

Answer 6

This question sounds like a Seinfeld skit.

Answer 7

Answer 8

I hate it when your finger goes through and sticks in your butt !

Answer 9
