3. I gotta say you have a point

I am in the global south and I am rarely enthusiastic about anything.
But six or so months ago I came across this product..it was amazing: cheap, reusable, bamboo-derived kitchen paper where you can use one ply upto a 100 times. It’s between a kitchen paper and a dishcloth. It doesn’t require lots of water and antiseptic to not get germy/start stinking.

It’s the best thing i have ever seen. The most sustainable product I have ever seen. And it’s made by a local company. Outside of tech which is creepy/awful anywhere, I see food and other sustainable products which I can’t imagine seeing in the US.

I looked it up on the Amazon.com and sure enough nothing like that exists in the US..or it didn’t..

Oh okay nm..now it does. Well that’s good. They are amazing.
