It seems there is conflicting information on toilet paper. I don’t understand why, unless they are trying to hide the fact that they do indeed put those toxic ingredients in toilet paper. I am not saying they do at all. I have no idea. But, here are three follow up emails to them:
1.
Since I thought the toilet paper list from Charmin was absurd I called
another time and they confirmed that was the list. So I emailed and the new
response is below. I will call tomorrow to confirm this info.
Thanks for your response.
The information that you requested is below:
Processed Wood Pulp. In NA we use virgin wood pulp. Our products don’t
contain recycled fibers. – Used to make paper from softwood trees (Pine &
Spruce) and hardwood trees (Oak/maple.)
Wet Strength Polymer Added to increase strength during wet use.
(Mention only if pressed) Adhesive Hold plies together. Present in
trace amounts
(Special type of glue)
I hope this helps!
Thanks again for writing to us.

I just spoke w/ Charmin. Hopefully this new info is correct. They said the
list I got was a list of items people asked about. It’s all very strange.
The new info is all Charmin is made from:
1. virgin wood pulp,
2. wet strength polymer
3. trace amounts of adhesive.
They make 4 varieties:
Basic-contains 3 ingredients
Ultra Soft-3 ingredients except the 9 pack mega roll also has aloe and
tocopheryl acetate
Ultra Strong-contains 3 ingredients
Sensitive- contains 3 ingredients and mineral oil, shea butter, cetearyl
alcohol, tocopheryl acetate, aloe and shea butter
I will send another email soon w/ the Scott update.

Here is an email from Scott tissue. The varieties listed only are virgin
wood pulp . I called and mentioned I was not interested in recycled toilet
paper after what I had read about the bacteria count in recycled paper
towels.
