12 units of imperialism. Use metric.
I find it scary that some people are afraid to do simple arithmetic and the most basic geometry…
Do you not see the made up measurements?
- Mega Plus
- Rolls
- Double Plus
- Super Mega
- Regular
You’d have to sit there for 8 minutes converting all of the “measurements”, figure out how much is in each package, and then only after doing it for all rolls and brands, you’ll be able to compare.
Easy math, but takes time. No one said it’s hard. It’s just time consuming.
There is no standard roll of toilet paper so it’s impossible to compare that way between brands. That’s why everyone says to look at how many square feet are in the package.

It’s just meaningless marketing.
I discovered yesterday that they no longer sell 16 ounce containers of ricotta cheese. They’re all now 15oz or 30oz. So if you have a recipe that needs four cups of cheese you have to either adjust the rest of the recipe down or deal with having a 1/4 cup less cheese than you really need.
Fuck capitalism.
You could buy 240 containers of ricotta cheese and 60 cups of cheese that way you’ll have the exact amount you need.
This is the Hebrew National 7 hot dog to 8 hot dog bun pack solution.
That’s a lot of lasagna…
No, that’s a prospective hustle that pays for your habit.
I mean, the Garfield movie did just come out so there’s gonna be demand.
Plus it’s a good holiday meal you can keep in the freezer and reheat when you have company.
Wouldn’t using that pre shredded stuff not be good for recipes though because of the added anti-clumpimg agents though?
I’ve made obscene amounts of home make macaroni and cheese over the last 20+ years and haven’t had a problem with it. I know it’s a funny place some people get passionate about, but the “anti-clumping agents” are typically some form of vegetable starch or fiber. If I’m making a cheese sauce I’m already using flour to help thicken and stabilize it anyway, so I don’t think the trace amounts really matter.
It matters more, in my opinion, for stuff like pizza because there isn’t already flour. The melting is noticeably different between shredded mozz and a block of low-moisture you cut or shredded yourself. But for cheese sauces and stuff I agree there isn’t really a difference
I’ve made obscene amounts of frozen Mac and cheese and that’s it. Thank you!
Ricotta isn’t a block cheese that you can buy pre-shredded like cheddar. It’s a pretty wet cheese and is usually sold in tubs in your basic markets, kind of like cottage cheese.
Lmao oh yeah hahah now I remember it XD
Fluid ounces or ounces?
Fluid ounces
This is literally “buying gems” in free to play games never amounting to the cost of a typical item, slightly under or over.
Someone gave me a Hello Fresh gift code. It doesn’t fully cover the large meal plan so I have the choise of paying 5 bucks extra or taking the smaller deal and leaving money in the table
Ask them to refund the rest
You’re not leaving money on the table if you take the smaller deal. If you buy the large meal plan, you were successfully manipulated into buying something you wouldn’t have considered otherwise.
You can always just have more or less cheese in the recipe. Or use the leftover cheese for something else later.
I’m not defending capitalism here, just defending cheese.
less cheese leftover cheese
I see those words but I don‘t understand any of them
Make your own with whole milk and vinegar/lemon juice.
Edit: downvotes from scaredycats who think cheese grows on trees
that makes buttermilk
That’s basically the process for making paneer, plus draining and pressing.
Queso fresco, too. It’s all the same cheese, just different levels of moisture!
You can sorta make cheese with just acid but yeah rennet or a rennet replacement is the way to go
No, it makes acid-set cheese, of which ricotta is a type. Buttermilk is the liquid leftover after you make butter.
The good old hot dog dilemma.
sexy
sexy.
They’re doing the same thing with sauces and broths. Assholes.
I’m an old and remember when smoked sausages were a pound. Then 14oz. Now 12oz.

This is why we need an ISO Toilet Paper Standard.
There are several:
- DIN EN ISO 12 625-4: 2005 (Dry tear resistance and perforation resistance)
- DIN EN ISO 12 625-5:2005 (wet tear resistance)
- DIN EN ISO 12 625 -9:2005 (Puncture resistance)
- DIN EN ISO 12 625-3:2005 (Paper thickness in use)
- EN ISO 12 625-8:2004 (Water retention capacity)
Yet there seems to be no standard for the size or number of sheets in a roll.
hmm, this is more like realizing your preferred language doesn’t have a word for a thing and deciding you want one.
Nah, ISO fucks and I fuck with ISO
Or just buy a bidet spray. Simple to install, no waste of paper and you can control the angle without having to touch the crevices.
I like my bidet, but I have no interest in letting my labia drip-dry so I will continue to buy toilet paper thank you.
You don’t have a hair dryer in your bathroom? /S
Bidet has reduced my toilet paper usage, but it’s absolutely not a replacement.
Are you walking away with wet butt? I have to dry with at least 2 squares post bidet
Bidet towel? Just clean the bottom real good and all you have to do is just pat-dry it. Am I going to meet more people who aren’t aware of this?
Many more people yes. Bidets and their concepts are not well known in most of western countries.
im not going to risk a towel in case I need a couple more sprays haha
You could put the towel in the wash if you’re initially doing poor job of cleaning.
Many people ain’t aware oft bidets and most of those who do know them assume they only exist in Japan or in Japanese toilets
You have a towel covered in poop just chilling in your bathroom and call it normal.
You’re supposed to clean your ass first, my friend
-
The jet spray from a bidet removes shit thoroughly from the ass cracks. Since bidets are effective at cleaning, it should not leave any poop stains.
-
You don’t use them while sitting. After you’re done with ass-washing, you get up from the toilet seat and dry your butt.
-
You’re not supposed to rub it, unless you want a bloodied, dangling rectum. It is used to absorb water, because the debris has already been dealt with by the bidet.
-
People shit only once or twice per day. The towel is replaced after 12 hours, or sometime even after every use, so what’s exactly wrong with it?
-
It isn’t supposed to be shared. I mean, you wouldn’t share a hanky or a body towel with someone else, would you?
-
Most people from around the world, especially in Europe and Asia, do this, so it is normal?
-
Eco-friendly? No paper is being wasted. Also no jammed toilets.
I use a bidet daily and sometimes theres still some poopy left after a few long sprays, I use toilet paper to dry off and do a check and then if its clean Im good to go, otherwise I hit it with some more sprays and check again. a few sheets of toilet paper is a lot better than no bidet but Im still not convinced a bidet by itself is good enough. at least here in the states bidets are simple bolt on squirters not a separate thing that might do a better job
Sorry you have to hear it this way, but a butt towel requiring a wash in detergent and even more water than you just flushed is less eco-friendly than two squares of toilet paper.
I think you should give this a read. This should convince you to switch to a bidet towel. What I’m surprised about, is that you fail to see how regenerating forests is more difficult than regenerating water. It is very hard to repair the uprooted ecosystem. And no, new trees can not solve climate crisis. You can substitute an eco-friendly detergent. You can clean multiple bidet towels together. Forests, however, takes years to grow, changes in the eco-system can lead to ecological disturbances, and it has to be monitored carefully. This is not the case with water being contaminated with detergent - excess phosphates can cause eutrophication of algae.
I would share a body towel, there is just no necessity to do so.
I challenge you to get poop on your finger, wash it off under the shower head, and then rub your eyeball directly with that finger. Your towel has poop residue on it.

My fancy bidet air dries.
I mean, I still wipe but I just wanted to flex over my bidet that blasts warm air all over my booty hole.
I usually just buy half a roll or so at a time from the guy behind the mcdonalds drive through.
As gemers nexus put it “Bigger number better”
Paper towel crowd is just as evil.
Toilet paper is just small paper towels that don’t scratch your butt
Now splinter free!
Diameter of roll
We need a new metric standard. Introducing the 💩.
112.6 standard rolls = 1k💩
1 mega plus = 4.5
1 “roll” =4.55555556
1 double plus = 2.26666667
1 super mega = 6.Sorry for formatting I’m on mobile
Double space (at the end of the line) = line break
Easy, regardless of the device you are using.
Hmm, doesn’t seem to be working. Might be specific on the apps maybe
Hmm is the average toilet paper roll empty?
If you account for all rolls that ever existed, it’s pretty close to empty
This is why you always have to show your units!
I can show you my unit ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Hey nowwww
