It really is soft and strong just like virgin paper.<br /><br />Stubby xoxoStubbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12962192098832384295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963881331505446717.post-21045560073263031072010-01-08T14:45:26.903-06:002010-01-08T14:45:26.903-06:00We use scott paper, it is pretty good and my fav o...We use scott paper, it is pretty good and my fav of all the brands i have tried.

Thanks for emailing Marcal and we'll see what they have to say.<br /><br />The hot dog stand was called Uncle Frank's and it was on the east side of Halsted, south of Diversey. Mom said there might be a shoe store there now but she's not sure. I love hot dogs and I'm sure if it was still there Mom would take me there.<br /><br />Stubby xoxoStubbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12962192098832384295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963881331505446717.post-87307676913295305662010-01-04T16:21:43.933-06:002010-01-04T16:21:43.933-06:00Hey Stubby, I checked at my Jewel today and they d...Hey Stubby, I checked at my Jewel today and they didn't have it. I sent an email to Marcal because their website said Jewel but it's not there, and they had a coupon in the paper, and it doesn't make sense to have a coupon but no products in the area.... *whew!* We'll see if I hear back. The north side is sure fun! The only hotdog stand that I know that is now gone is Demon Dogs on Fullerton by the El. They rebuilt the station and tore it down!dwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11619029871274499519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963881331505446717.post-47420750696787049272010-01-03T20:36:11.683-06:002010-01-03T20:36:11.683-06:00Hi dw!

I think an email to Whole Foods is in order.<br /><br />Mom has told me many stories about her high school days hanging out near Diversey and Halsted. There use to be a hot dog stand there and she was there all the time. It's been gone for years but Mom has lots of great memories. To say that she was all over the north side in those days would be an understatement!<br /><br />Stubby xoxoStubbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12962192098832384295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963881331505446717.post-44385831043516946612010-01-03T16:24:07.832-06:002010-01-03T16:24:07.832-06:00Hi Stubby.

I do think more research is needed, but at least it's better than some. I shop at the Jewel near Diversey and Ashland. I probably won't get any right now since I have enough tp right now! But since I'll be there anyway, I'll check it out!dwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11619029871274499519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963881331505446717.post-72657762444682566722010-01-03T16:16:35.057-06:002010-01-03T16:16:35.057-06:00Hi dw!

I was looking for it on their website and didn't see it. I did check the NRDC website which has environmental ratings for paper products and they claim the post-consumer content is 80-95%. Time for me to do more research.<br /><br />Dad saw the coupon for Marcal today too. He mentioned it to Mom and she told him that she Jewel didn't carry it. I'm curious to see if your Jewel has it. Thanks for checking on it for me. I look forward to your report. Are you going to buy some for yourself? Which Jewel do you shop at?<br /><br />Stubby xoxoStubbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12962192098832384295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963881331505446717.post-20874267842488102312010-01-03T16:10:59.538-06:002010-01-03T16:10:59.538-06:00Hey Salinger!

I checked the website and they are still listing them as being available at Jewel. It is hard to believe that somewhere in the area would not carry it if there's a coupon in our paper. I'm going to my Jewel tomorrow, so I'll look there and report back!dwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11619029871274499519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963881331505446717.post-33336221917930460112010-01-03T13:26:49.585-06:002010-01-03T13:26:49.585-06:00This is what they say about the Whole Foods toilet...This is what they say about the Whole Foods toilet paper:<br /><br />Whole Foods 365 100% Recycled Toilet Paper<br />2 ply/ 180 sheets per roll/ 4.3"x3.66" sheet/ 78.6 sq. ft.<br />$1.69 for a 4-pack at Whole Foods<br />Recycled content: 100 percent<br />Post-consumer recycled content: 40 percent minimum<br />Color: white (processed without chlorine) <br /><br />Might be worth checking out.dwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11619029871274499519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963881331505446717.post-20966077081176816692010-01-03T08:34:51.283-06:002010-01-03T08:34:51.283-06:00Mom says she's going to mail you a big box of ...Mom says she's going to mail you a big box of de-kerneled corn cobs like the pioneers used to use. <br /><br />We've got a butt-load (pardon the expression!) down here in Indiana.<br /><br />That should solve your TP dilemma.
