Save The Planet *And* Your Anus Too! Bamboo Toilet Paper And Other Atrocities

By Josh Bloom — Feb 15, 2019
Since everything green makes a whole lot of green, it was inevitable that someone would come with a new way to clean, you know ... that thing of yours. Enter: bamboo toilet paper. What better opportunity to come up with an ad slogan contest? There's a prize too! Take your best shot, even though your chance of winning is vanishingly small.

For any of you expecting an erudite discussion about medicine, opioid policy, or even a chemistry lesson I apologize in advance. My week rhymed with "witty" and I need to vent. Fortunately, I was spoon fed the following, which isn't all that different than dropping Kobe beef into a tank of starving piranhas.

Bamboo toilet paper? Where to begin? How about a contest? Whoever comes up with the worst product slogan for this stuff wins a badass ACSH coffee mug! Get 'em while they last. I'll start*.

"Be kind to your rectum. Paper rolls? Just reject 'em" (mic drop)

* Disclaimer: I'm the judge AND a participant. The fix is in.

Mmmmm!

Your turn.

Given the existence of bamboo toilet paper, isn't is only natural to wonder what other innovations NatureZway might offer? Look no further.

Here's another: NatureZway's bamboo dog sponge! But is the thing any good? Let's run an experiment...

1. Steve, a dog-loving planet-saver decides to try out the bamboo sponge on Foofie. Things start off well enough...

2. But, note the subtle change in Foofie's demeanor. Perhaps he didn't enjoy the bamboo dog sponge bath all that much.

3. He did not. 

Foofie, who has mysteriously changed color, breed, and size, expresses his displeasure to Steve.

And then, we have these things, which are compostable! But you pay a price for the compostability...

That's sure a lot of money for a grocery bag. Almost highway robbery. Perhaps that's why it looks like the bag it holding its hands up. Maybe that's why this image comes to mind...

Well, boys and girls. I hope you've enjoyed the show. Don't forget to put your (losing) contest entries in the comments section. You might even finish second!
