We don’t talk about toilet tissue much on this blog. That’s a delicate subject and I hate to bring it up but, well, somebody has to. I stumbled across an article about Chief White Cloud, chief of the Iowa Indians during the early 1800’s. He was very respected, so much so that there’s a portrait of him in The National Gallery of Art in our nation’s capital. So, my question is this: how can we allow (of all things!) a toilet tissue brand to exist with the chief’s name? That’s not how we honor people in this country. Let’s get that name modified.
In White Cloud’s defense, I’m sure they didn’t know about the chief when they named the product. I’m guessing the name stemmed from the days of the outhouses when people used the “white” pages.
Just curious: Can you get Northern Toilet Tissue in the south? I’m pretty busy running this blog so if someone could look that up that’d be great.
