I've been wiping my own butt for over 30 years now

I've been wiping my own butt for over 30 years now, and never, up until recently had I had a problem with little bits of toilet paper sticking to my rear end. There are many brands of toilet paper out there, but I'm sure most ATS readers are aware that they are all owned by Proctor & Gamble.
What I'm proposing is that Proctor & Gamble purposely engineered a TP that leave little bits stuck to your behind. They created a problem, and conveniently charge us more for the solution. Seems to be a lot of that going around these days...

Uh...P&G does not make all the TP out there,
Georgia-Pacific, Kimberly-Clark. Those are just a couple other makers just here in the US.
How can hemp be used to make toilet paper? Both the fiber (bast) and pulp (hurd) of the hemp plant can be used to make toilet paper. Fiber paper was the first kind of paper, and the first batch was made out of hemp in ancient China. Fiber paper is thin, tough, brittle, and a bit rough. Pulp paper is not as strong as fiber paper, but it is easier to make, softer, thicker, and preferable for most everyday purposes.
The toilet paper we use most today is a `chemical pulp’ paper made from trees. Hemp pulp toilet paper can be made without chemicals from the hemp hurd. Most hemp paper made today uses the entire hemp stalk, bast and hurd. High-strength fiber paper can be made from the hemp baste, also without chemicals. According to the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, one acre of hemp can produce 4 times more paper than one acre of trees!

Some things I notice about my own wiping requirements.
#1. I do not have the physical ability to bend around and inspect the area.
#2. I have no desire use a mirror to inspect it, or have someone else look.
#3. If it's crappy 1 ply tissue I just take more and fold it to a desired thickness.
#4. I shower daily, so the worry over hygiene is mute.
#5. Fold, don't crumple or wad. It reduces sphincter grabbing of the paper.
#6. Wipe a couple times, and then check the paper if you need more cleaning.
#7. Everyone Poops. It's a good book, so read it.........
