Trader Joe's 100% Recycled Toilet Paper

Come on, lets get real. Why do we need to pay more even a little more for recycled paper. It is used stuff??? TJ's toilet paper is 350 total square feet for $3.99. Compare that to Koger's Home Sense at 1388 square feet for $7.49 that is less then 1/2 penny fer square foot compared to TJ's at 1.1 cent per square foot. That is over twice the price????? I don't know if Kroger's is recycled, but I will call their office tomorrow and find out. I want to help our planet by using product over and over again but not at this price. TJ you need to work hard at bringing us 100% recycle paper at a better price.

its hard to find recycled toilet tissue that doesnt suck. most of the brands on greenoptions aren’t available at my local depots, except i CAN find trader joe’s... well, at trader joes. i just wish there was more option, more availability.

but, i tend to think that the plastic packaging kinda outweighs the recycled tissue content.
 

We don't live very close to a Trader Joe's, so while we bought a 12 pack once, we haven't boughten another since. I would get it again though, because it is a great deal for eco-TP. It was soft enough and strong enough, it's just not close enough!

Added: We bought a second package of the TJ TP, and this time around I have really noticed that the paper is thinner than your generic non-recycled 2 ply stuff (which was our last batch, due to a TP emergency!  Always remember to buy before you are down to that last roll...).  Now I find that I need to use a couple extra layers to keep the paper from riping while wiping.  I don't remember having this issue the first time around, so I don't know if something's changed or if it's just me, but I plan to try 7G next time we shop.
