Think like an engineer. That isn't 1 ply, it is materials needed to make 20 ply.
What always gets me when I see paper like this, is just how much manpower, engineering time, experimentation, materials science, and just sheer concerted effort went into making paper this fucking thin and useless.
I like how the dispensers roll holder is always too tight so it over tensions and breaks the paper and the elasticity sends it back up and around the top of the roll. Then you have to pull the roll through by pushing up against it at the same time to get it back out but you go the wrong way so you reverse and then there’s too much length so that when it comes free it’s too long and it touches the ground. So you break it off and throw it away and start again, pulling the roll only for it to over tension and snap again
Also what manager or purchaser looks at the Costco TP flat, then looks at this and thinks this is somehow a better option?
It’s probably because they are hoping the purchaser is using a spreadsheet going “x cents per sheet” and this is rigged to jump to the top of that sort order
Not probably. Definitely. This is exactly it. Bean counting at its finest.
This is the raw material real toilet paper is made of. Similarly, you could also buy sewing thread to make your own rope. Not the most practical idea really, but it is possible.
It definitely doesn't work like that.
Even 20 layers of that stuff is still like using wax paper to schmear melted chocolate.
That's the last time I get a schmear on my bagel.
That only works if the paper isn't slippery.
It just slides over each other, ripping one part if you pull just a little too hard and the other sticking to your ass.
Layer the grain at 90° angles so that it still slides, but now it does it in weird patterns
