Toilet Paper

Like a knife, toilet paper (henceforth known as TP) is the ultimate in personal choice — it’s optional for some which is why it’s last on the list 🙂

Pick a brand and stick with it.  I like something more commercial that does not have a tube in the middle, but some folks like the inner tube for “thumb-rolling” action.  My preference packs more TP in less space.

Recently, I’ve found a fantastic option to save on space in the backpack.  Canadian Prepper has a great youtube video on TP tabs.  You do need to bring a little bit of water with you in your water bottle, but having used this option, I can attest to being squeaky clean of those evil Klingons that turn into dark matter around the black hole.

If TP tabs are just too gleamingly ingenious and newfangled for you, and you prefer traditional TP, then Wirecutter has done a great article on the best toilet paper to pamper your privates.
