A mother’s budget-friendly hack is kicking up quite the stink online.
A woman who goes by the name Jazmine online set up her camera to show how her family of six share reusable clothes instead of traditional toilet paper.
“It’s really actually more common than you would think,” she claims.
“They’re clean”
While restocking the wicker basket that she stores on the top of the bathroom lid, she busted common myths about the sustainable practice on TikTok.
“There’s a lot of people asking if we use the same one and technically yes, but not at the same time. We wash them. You use one and you put it in the dirty bin,” she explained.
“Technically everyone is still going to use it, but they’re clean. It’s like a clean towel.”
Her explanation of the process has left little room for any doubt.
“You bidet first, you pat dry, and it goes in the bin,” she detailed.
She also called out the naysayers.
“It’s not dirty. It’s just what people want to call it, because they’re not familiar with it,” she defended.
Recently, the family went through more towels than usual, which meant two loads of laundry.
The culprit.
Taco Bell.
“It really did not settle well. So everybody was fighting over the reusable toilet paper,” she said.
“As a family of six, it can be quite difficult to keep it going, but we have a lot. I like to keep it stocked.”
“Use a bidet”
In her opinion, there’s zero difference between wiping with a cloth and using a towel after a shower.
“It’s been such a game changer. You’re so much cleaner when you use a bidet,” she said.
The comment section was rattled to say the least.
“The sigh of relief at the word bidet,” one joked.
“I’m all for saving money but that’s where I’d draw the line,” another argued.
“The way my mouth immediately closed when you said bidet and then immediately opened when you said Taco Bell. This was an emotional rollercoaster,” a third added.
But what if nature calls for more than one towel?
Well, the mom has a mess-free solution, keeping a large towel beneath the smaller towels.
“I forbid using more than one towel at one use. If you’re really having tummy problems you get to use the big towel,” she explained.
