NEWS – Here’s something that EVERYONE needs for their emergency preparedness kit, bug out bag, or EDC. Toilet Paper. Say what you will about your fellow humans, but one thing that we can all agree on is that we all have to go to the bathroom and when it comes to #2, we all like to clean up afterward. But how do we do that when we’re hiking, or in another situation where a bathroom with toilet paper isn’t available? You can use leaves but ick, right?
Check out Wysi Wipes. Wysi Wipes are tablet sized compressed toilettes that are hypo-allergenic, unscented and made of cellulose (pulp fiber) which is 100% biodegradable.
To use a wipe, you just moisten it with a little bit of water and it instantly expands and is ready for use. Depending on what you intend to use it for, you can rinse it and reuse it several times.
Wysi Wipes come packaged in resealable bags in several sizes. The 9 x 12 wipe size comes in a bag of 100 tablets for $11.95 from Amazon.

Two things: 1) Fascinating and unique space-saving way to deploy this product.
2) I’m exercising extreme control this time and will contribute no jokes. OK, one. ‘Honey, the tums taste funny today’.
Lex, you never fail to make me smile 😀
Meal replacement tablets?
Toilet paper – reuse?! They should be called cleansing wipes, or something similar.
Of course you wouldn’t use these wipes as toilet paper and then reuse them… Come on… But if you use them as just regular wipes, that’s another matter.
A sure way to clog a toilet.
“you can rinse it and reuse it several times.”
These are NOT toilet paper. I talked to a plumber recently and he said just those ultra soft, quilted type TPs alone are real good at causing clogs, so something that can be rinsed and reused several times definitely has no place in a toilet. Just carry Kleenex in the plastic pocket packs.
Joe, I think the purpose of these is to use them outdoors… not in a bathroom where you should already have access to toilet paper.
Emphasis on *should* – there’s a reason that I always check before I sit that there’s paper in a public toilet.
