Reel Toilet Paper, Made from 100% Sustainable Bamboo

It would be interesting to know the LCA (life-cycle analysis) of this product.  True, it doesn’t cause trees to be harvested, and let’s suppose the loss of the bamboo has zero ecological impact.  But how much energy is required to harvest, process, package, and ship the bamboo?

One thing’s for certain: It’s expensive as hell. $1.37 per roll, about four times what the conventional product costs.

I like their marketing:

“It’s vegan.” That’s good.  I’d hate to think that the toilet paper I use comes from egg shells or cow hides.

My very favorite: “Conveniently delivered to your door before you need it.”  Well, I have to admit, that’s far better than after you need it.
