Your toilet paper is scented too. You just never noticed. I must say, green tea sounds nicer than baby powder, or whatever that scent is.

I mean, after I use it, sure.
So Japan is also afflicted with the completely nonsensical and utterly flabbergasting array of “double”, “giant”, “mega” and “times infinity” roll silliness?

Scented toilet paper is straight up flushing toxic nonsense into the local water table.
It’s not cool.

Is Japan not basically the nexus point for “Super! Giant! Mega! Ultra wow!” type advertising?

Oh my god, was it their fault all along!?!

If I read this right it says on the wrapper how long a bogroll is.
I like that.
Urgh… This all seems very amusing unless you regularly shop at a Japanese grocery store with a 7 year old girl, who insists on the house being stocked with hello kitty TP. It’s not bad TP, it’s just not as good as the regular stuff (it’s a bit “smooth”, and has little moisture resistance).
But on the positive side, if you like white paper with little pink outlined hello kitties to smear shit on, it’s great stuff.

Install a second bog-roll holder and buy both kinds of TP. Win-win.
And get a second kitten so each has their own roll to unroll!
Not a bad idea. I prefer charmin extra strength. One of the few TP’s that’s not gas station industrial strength wax paper with splinters that guarantees that I “won’t get in touch with my inner self” if I’m having a little GI upset…
On a weird TP note, all the TP I used in Ecuador was very pink, and very rough (often with woody chips in it).
