Flushable Diapers

In researching diapers, I realized yesterday that it goes beyond just paper or plastic–er, disposable or cloth. There are green disposables from Seventh Generation. There are bazillions of cloth diapers. But now, it seems, there are flushable diapers that can even be composted (just the wet ones)!

It’s a pretty cool concept, though it might take a couple days to get used to (it requires the use of a “swish stick”). But for something that’s as convenient as a disposable diaper and as environmentally friendly as a cloth diaper, these might be hard to beat. Pricewise, I suspect they’re a little pricey, but haven’t worked out a “per-poop” cost yet, because I’m a little lazy.

Oh, and the tagline? “Fashion and function on one cute bum.” Nice.

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
