Those who test the toilets

Posted 10.28.2002 by Pooperscooper
Dave Barry, everyone's favorite curmudgeon, recently visited a toilet-testing factory. His column lambasts low-flow toilets as he speaks with those who are trying to make them better.

"But the most impressive test material, by FAR, is the fermented bean curd, which Kenney said is made, using a secret recipe, by the Toto toilet company of Japan, a world leader in commode innovation. I mean, this stuff looks EXACTLY like real Geraldo. I myself would not touch it. I watched in fascinated horror as Kenney boldly grasped a mass of it and, with his bare hands, formed 10 incredibly lifelike Puff Daddies. Needless to say, these clogged the test toilet."

Bean curd? Sounds more like bean TURD. I think I read an article somewhere else on PR that someone has now patented fake poop used for toilet testing. Obviously the stuff is doing some good, because some of the newer low-flow toilets I have used don't clog nearly as badly as the ones I remember when they first started coming out.

I don't understand. Why can't they just put the test toilets plumbed into a stall and let people actually poop in them?

Imagine getting paid to create fake poop. I would decline to put that on my resume.

Then again, maybe it would help.

Yes TSV, the newer water savers are way better than the earlier versions.

I remember the very first lo flow toilets when I was a teenager. I wish I had a dime for everytime I clogged that sucker. Big logs would laugh that toilet.

So I guess the bean curd (turd) test is working.

Many of the newer toilets are stronger than the old five gallon toilets.
